Abstract

Consider an experiment with a finite set of design points representing permissible trial conditions. Suppose that each trial is associated with a cost that depends on the selected design point. In this paper, we study the problem of constructing an approximate D-optimal experimental design with simultaneous restrictions on the size and on the total cost. For the problem of size-and-cost constrained D-optimality, we formulate an equivalence theorem and rules for the removal of redundant design points. We also propose a simple monotonically convergent "barycentric" algorithm that allows us to numerically compute a size-and-cost constrained approximate D-optimal design.
