D-optimal and highly D-efficient designs with non-negatively correlated observations

Krystyna Katulska, Łukasz Smaga (2016)

Kybernetika

In this paper we consider D-optimal and highly D-efficient chemical balance weighing designs. The errors are assumed to be equally non-negatively correlated and to have equal variances. Some necessary and sufficient conditions under which a design is D*-optimal design (regular D-optimal design) are proved. It is also shown that in many cases D*-optimal design does not exist. In many of those cases the designs constructed by Masaro and Wong (2008) and some new designs are shown to be highly D-efficient....

D-optimal cyclic two-dimensional block designs.

Jagdish N. Srivastava, A. M. Wijetunga (1983)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

In this paper we consider a class of incomplete block designs in which every block is two dimensional. Thus heterogeneity is removed not only between blocks, but also in two directions within each block. Such designs have been considered before in Srivastava (1977,1978). Here, we consider the class of cyclic designs of this type when the number of treatments ν is an odd number between 5 and 25, and present designs that are D-optimal within this class.

Drought models based on Burr XII variables

Saralees Nadarajah, B. M. Golam Kibria (2006)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Burr distributions are some of the most versatile distributions in statistics. In this paper, a drought application is described by deriving the exact distributions of U = XY and W = X/(X+Y) when X and Y are independent Burr XII random variables. Drought data from the State of Nebraska are used.
