Augmented designs are typically used in early-stage breeding programs to compare single replicates of test entries by combining them with replicated check varieties. One or two dimensional incomplete blocking can be incorporated in the…
Semi-Latin squares have been extensively studied. They can be interpreted as a special case of latinized block designs where the number of columns is equal to the number of replicates in the design. Latinized row-column designs are…
Row-column designs play an important role in applications where two orthogonal sources of error need to be controlled for by blocking. Field or greenhouse experiments, in which experimental units are arranged as a rectangular array of…
Augmented block designs for unreplicated test treatments are investigated under the A- and MV-criteria with respect to control versus control, test versus test and control versus test comparisons. We derive design-independent lower bounds…
We introduce near triple arrays as binary row-column designs with at most two consecutive values for the replication numbers of symbols, for the intersection sizes of pairs of rows, pairs of columns and pairs of a row and a column. Near…
Follow-up experimental designs are popularly used in industry. In many follow-up designs, some additional factors with two or three levels may be added in the follow-up stage since they are quite important but may be neglected in the first…
An {\em $m\times n$ row-column factorial design} is an arrangement of the elements of a factorial design into a rectangular array. Such an array is used in experimental design, where the rows and columns can act as blocking factors. If for…
We investigate block designs, under the A- and MV-criteria, when each treatment can have only one or two replications due to resource constraints, as can happen, for example, in early generation varietal trials. While these are commonly…
We computationally completely enumerate a number of types of row-column designs up to isotopism, including double, sesqui and triple arrays as known from the literature, and two newly introduced types that we call mono arrays and AO-arrays.…
The $q^k$ (full) factorial design with replication $\lambda$ is the multi-set consisting of $\lambda$ occurrences of each element of each $q$-ary vector of length $k$; we denote this by $\lambda\times [q]^k$. An $m\times n$ row-column…
We present a new construction of triple arrays by combining a symmetric 2-design with a resolution of another 2-design. This is the first general method capable of producing non-extremal triple arrays. We call the triple arrays which can be…
The focus of this thesis is the study and construction of covering arrays, relying on maximal period sequences and other tools from finite fields. A covering array of strength $t$, denoted $\mathrm{CA}(N; t, k,v)$, is an $N\times k$ array…
Designs for Order-of-Addition (OofA) experiments have received growing attention due to their impact on responses based on the sequence of component addition. In certain cases, these experiments involve heterogeneous groups of units, which…
The randomized row method is a popular representative of the iterative algorithm because of its efficiency in solving the overdetermined and consistent systems of linear equations. In this paper, we present an extended randomized multiple…
A supersaturated design is a design whose run size is not large enough for estimating all the main effects. The goodness of multi-level supersaturated designs can be judged by the generalized minimum aberration criterion proposed by Xu and…
Sliced Sudoku-based space-filling designs and, more generally, quasi-sliced orthogonal array-based space-filling designs are useful experimental designs in several contexts, including computer experiments with categorical in addition to…
In this paper we first study $k \times n$ Youden rectangles of small orders. We have enumerated all Youden rectangles for a range of small parameter values, excluding the almost square cases where $k = n-1$, in a large scale computer…
In this paper, we introduce the $k\times n$ (with $k\leq n$) truncated, supplemented Pascal matrix which has the property that any $k$ columns form a linearly independent set. This property is also present in Reed-Solomon codes; however,…
Linear codes and $t$-designs are interactive with each other. It is well known that some $t$-designs have been constructed by using certain linear codes in recent years. However, only a small number of infinite families of the extended…
Orthogonal array, a classical and effective tool for collecting data, has been flourished with its applications in modern computer experiments and engineering statistics. Driven by the wide use of computer experiments with both qualitative…
