Some observations on the constructions of chemical balance weighing designs

Ratnakaram Nava Mohan, Bronisław Ceranka, Sanpei Kageyama (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The construction of some optimum chemical balance weighing designs from affine μ-resolvable balanced incomplete block (BIB) designs are discussed in the light of a characterization theorem on the parameters of affine μ-resolvable BIB designs as given by Mohan and Kageyama (1982), for the sake of practical use of researchers who need some selective designs for the construction of chemical balance weighing designs.

Adaptive biased-coin designs for clinical trials with several treatments

Anthony C. Atkinson (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Adaptive designs are used in phase III clinical trials for skewing the allocation pattern towards the better treatments. We use optimum design theory to provide a skewed biased-coin procedure for sequential designs with continuous responses. The skewed designs are used to provide adaptive designs, the performance of which is studied numerically for designs with three treatments. Important properties are loss and the proportion of allocation to inferior treatments. Regularisation to provide...

Use ofα-resolvable designs in the construction of two-factor experiments of split-plot type

Kazuhiro Ozawa, Shinji Kuriki, Stanisław Mejza (2016)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

We consider an incomplete split-plot design (ISPD) with two factors generated by the semi-Kronecker product of two α-resolvable designs. We use an α-resolvable design for the whole plot treatments and an affine α-resolvable design for the subplot treatments. We characterize the ISPDs with respect to the general balance property, and we give the stratum efficiency factors for the ISPDs.

Some D-optimal chemical balance weighing designs: theory and examples

Bronisław Ceranka, Małgorzata Graczyk (2017)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

In this paper we study a certain kind of experimental designs called chemical balance weighing designs. We consider issues with regard to determining optimality conditions. We give new classes of designs in which we are able to determine an optimal design. Moreover, examples are given for the presented cases.

Incomplete split-block designs constructed by affine α-resolvable designs

Kazuhiro Ozawa, Shinji Kuriki, Stanisław Mejza (2017)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

We construct an incomplete split-block design (ISBD) by the semi- Kronecker product of two affine α-resolvable designs for row and column treatments. We characterize such ISBDs with respect to the general balance property and we give the stratum efficiency factors for the ISBDs.

A note on the relations between two ternary balanced block designs and chemical balance weighing designs

Katarzyna Ambroży, Bronisław Ceranka (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The paper studied the problem of estimating of the weights of p objects in n weighings using a chemical balance weighing design under the restriction on the number of objects which can be placed on the right and left pans, respectively. Conditions under which the estimated weights are uncorrelated are given. The incidence matrices of two ternary balanced block designs which are used to construct chemical balance weighing designs satisfying these conditions are considered.

A unified terminology in block designs

Tadeusz Caliński, Sanpei Kageyama (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Partially efficiency balanced (PEB) designs with m efficiency classes have been defined by Puri and Nigam [15] as block designs which have simple analysis and, if properly used, allow the important contrasts to be estimated with desired efficiency. Such designs can be made available in varying replications and/or unequal block sizes. However, any block design is a PEB design with m efficiency classes for some m < v, where v is the number of treatments in the design. So the term "PEB"...

On a characterization of symmetric balanced incomplete block designs

R.N. Mohan, Sanpei Kageyama, M.M. Nair (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

All the symmetric balanced incomplete block (SBIB) designs have been characterized and a new generalized expression on parameters of SBIB designs has been obtained. The parameter b has been formulated in a different way which is denoted by bi, i = 1, 2, 3, associating with the types of the SBIB design Di. The parameters of all the designs obtained through this representation have been tabulated while corresponding them with the suitable formulae for the number ofblocks bi and the expression...
