Model driven architecture (MDA) concentrates on the use of models during software development. An approach using models as the central development artifact is more abstract, more compact and thus more effective and probably also less error…
Response surface designs are usually described as being run under complete randomization of the treatment combinations to the experimental units. In practice, however, it is often necessary or beneficial to run them under some kind of…
With the current trend in Model-Based Systems Engineering towards Digital Engineering and early Validation & Verification, experiments are increasingly used to estimate system parameters and explore design decisions. Managing such…
A design-based individual prediction approach is developed based on the expected cross-validation results, given the sampling design and the sample-splitting design for cross-validation. Whether the predictor is selected from an ensemble of…
Food authenticity studies are concerned with determining if food samples have been correctly labeled or not. Discriminant analysis methods are an integral part of the methodology for food authentication. Motivated by food authenticity…
There exist multiple regression applications in engineering, industry and medicine where the outcomes follow an adaptive experimental design in which the next measurement depends on the previous observations, so that the observations are…
The efficiency of an experimental design is ultimately measured in terms of time and resources needed for the experiment. Optimal sequential (multi-stage) design is studied in the situation where each stage involves a fixed cost. The…
Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) is a dimension reduction method which plays a large role in the analysis of tables with categorical nominal variables such as survey data. Though it is usually motivated and derived using geometric…
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as mathematical models evaluates the technical efficiency of Decision Making Units (DMU) having multiple inputs and multiple outputs. Researchers are interested in applying DEA models in Multi Attribute…
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…
In this paper, we consider procedures for testing hypotheses on the dimension of the linear span generated by a growing number of $p\times p$ covariance matrices from independent $q$ populations. Under a proper limiting scheme where all the…
Asymptotic methods for hypothesis testing in high-dimensional data usually require the dimension of the observations to increase to infinity, often with an additional condition on its rate of increase compared to the sample size. On the…
We consider three challenges in multi-block Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM): building convergence conditions for ADMM with any block (variable) sequence, finding available block sequences to be fit for ADMM, and designing…
Repeated-measure designs allow comparisons within a group as well as between groups, and are commonly referred to as split-plot designs. While originating in agricultural experiments, they are now widely used in medical research,…
This paper analytically investigates the optimal design of gamma degradation tests, including the number of test units, the number of inspections, and inspection times. We first derive optimal designs with periodic inspection times under…
A comprehensive review of the literature on crossover design is needed to highlight its evolution, applications, and methodological advancements across various fields. Given its widespread use in clinical trials and other research domains,…
A multitude of web and desktop applications are now widely available in diverse human languages. This paper explores the design issues that are specifically relevant for multilingual users. It reports on the continued studies of Information…
Space-filling designs are commonly used in computer experiments to fill the space of inputs so that the input-output relationship can be accurately estimated. However, in certain applications such as inverse design or feature-based…
We consider an experiment with two qualitative factors at 2 levels each and a binary response, that follows a generalized linear model. In Mandal, Yang and Majumdar (2010) we obtained basic results and characterizations of locally D-optimal…
The optimization of composition and processing to obtain materials that exhibit desirable characteristics has historically relied on a combination of scientist intuition, trial and error, and luck. We propose a methodology that can…
