D-optimal designs for the Mitscherlich non-linear regression function

Statistics Theory 2021-04-06 v1 Applications Statistics Theory

Abstract

Mitscherlich's function is a well-known three-parameter non-linear regression function that quantifies the relation between a stimulus or a time variable and a response. Optimal designs for this function have been constructed only for normally distributed responses with homoscedastic variances. In this paper, we construct D-optimal designs for discrete and continuous responses having their distribution function in the exponential family. We also demonstrate the connection with D-optimality for weighted linear regression.
