Package 'MixedLevelRSDs'

Title: Mixed Level Response Surface Designs
Description: Response Surface Designs (RSDs) involving factors not all at same levels are called Mixed Level RSDs (or Asymmetric RSDs). In many practical situations, RSDs with asymmetric levels will be more suitable as it explores more regions in the design space. (J.S. Mehta and M.N. Das (1968) <doi:10.2307/1267046>. "Asymmetric rotatable designs and orthogonal transformations").This package contains function named ATORDs_I() for generating asymmetric third order rotatable designs (ATORDs) based on third order designs given by Das and Narasimham (1962). Function ATORDs_II() generates asymmetric third order rotatable designs developed using t-design of unequal set sizes, which are smaller in size as compared to design generated by function ATORDs_I(). In general, third order rotatable designs can be classified into two classes viz., designs that are suitable for sequential experimentation and designs for non-sequential experimentation. The sequential experimentation approach involves conducting the trials step by step whereas, in the non-sequential experimentation approach, the entire runs are executed in one go (M. N. Das and V. Narasimham (1962) <doi:10.1214/AOMS/1177704374>. "Construction of Rotatable Designs through Balanced Incomplete Block Designs"). ATORDs_I() and ATORDs_II() functions generate non-sequential asymmetric third order designs. Function named SeqTORD() generates symmetric sequential third order design in blocks and also gives G-efficiency of the given design. Function named Asymseq() generates asymmetric sequential third order designs in blocks (M. Hemavathi, Eldho Varghese, Shashi Shekhar and Seema Jaggi (2020) <doi:10.1080/02664763.2020.1864817>. "Sequential asymmetric third order rotatable designs (SATORDs)"). In response surface design, situations may arise in which some of the factors are qualitative in nature (Jyoti Divecha and Bharat Tarapara (2017) <doi:10.1080/08982112.2016.1217338>. "Small, balanced, efficient, optimal, and near rotatable response surface designs for factorial experiments asymmetrical in some quantitative, qualitative factors"). The Function named QualRSD() generates second order design with qualitative factors along with their D-efficiency and G-efficiency. The function named RotatabilityQ() calculates a measure of rotatability (measure Q, 0 <= Q <= 1) given by Draper and Pukelshiem(1990) for given a design based on a second order model, (Norman R. Draper and Friedrich Pukelsheim(1990) <doi:10.1080/00401706.1990.10484635>. "Another look at rotatability").

Asymmetric Third Order Designs for sequential experimentation

Description

Generates asymmetric sequential third order design for v (3 <= v <= 9) factors in two blocks. Block I gives a second order design for the first stage of the experimentation. If lack of fit of the second order model is found to be significant, then further experimentation can be done with the design given in block II. Runs from block-I and block-II combined form a third order design. It also gives G-efficiency of the third order design.

Usage

Asymseq(v)

Arguments

v

Total number of input factors

Value

Third order design in two blocks

Note

The user is given with a set of mixed level response surface designs and after entering the serial number of any of the designs from the displayed set, the chosen design will be generated and displayed.

Asymmetric Third Order Rotatable Designs based on Third Order Designs given by Das and Narasimham (1962)

Description

Generates asymmetric third order rotatable designs based on third order designs given by Das and Narasimham (1962) for a given number of input factors, v (3<=v<=9) with coded levels of the factors.

Usage

ATORDs_I(v)

Arguments

v

Number of input factors

Details

The user is given two options for design generation. Method 1 generates asymmetric third order rotatable designs based on the third order designs given by Das and Narasimham (1962) for a given number of input factors, while method 2 generates asymmetric third order rotatable designs in a smaller number of runs as compared to the design generated by method 1, however, the variances of estimated parameters of the same order may not remain the same in case of design generated by method 2. After entering the serial number of any of the methods from the displayed set, the design from the chosen method will be generated and displayed.

Value

Asymmetric Third Order Rotatable Designs (ATORDs) for a given v.

Note

The user is given with a set of mixed level response surface designs and after entering the serial number of any of the designs from the displayed set, the chosen design will be generated and displayed.
