Abstract
In experiments to estimate parameters of a parametric model, Bayesian experiment design allows measurement settings to be chosen based on utility, which is the predicted improvement of parameter distributions due to modeled measurement results. In this paper we compare information-theory-based utility with three alternative utility algorithms. Tests of these utility alternatives in simulated adaptive measurements demonstrate large improvements in computational speed with slight impacts on measurement efficiency.
