Optimum chemical balance weighing designs under the restriction on weighings

Bronisław Ceranka, Małgorzata Graczyk (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The paper deals with the problem of estimating individual weights of objects, using a chemical balance weighing design under the restriction on the number in which each object is weighed. A lower bound for the variance of each of the estimated weights from this chemical balance weighing design is obtained and a necessary and sufficient condition for this lower bound to be attained is given. The incidence matrix of ternary balanced block design is used to construct optimum chemical balance...

Optimal chemical balance weighing designs for v + 1 objects

Bronisław Ceranka, Małgorzata Graczyk (2003)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The paper studies the estimation problem of individual weights of objects using a chemical balance weighing design under the restriction on the number times in which each object is weighed. Conditions under which the existence of an optimum chemical balance weighing design for p = v objects implies the existence of an optimum chemical balance weighing design for p = v + 1 objects are given. The existence of an optimum chemical balance weighing design for p = v + 1 objects implies the existence of an optimum...

Some applications of weighing designs

Małgorzata Graczyk (2013)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to apply results on weighing designs to the setting of 2m factorial designs. Using weighing designs, we give some proposals for experimental plans. Relevant counterexamples are indicated. Also the results of a simulation study on the existence of weighing designs are presented.

X −1 -balance of some partially balanced experimental designs with particular emphasis on block and row-column designs

Ryszard Walkowiak (2015)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

This paper considers block designs and row-column designs where the information matrix C has two different nonzero eigenvalues, one of multiplicity 1 and the other of multiplicity h−1, where h is the rank of the matrix C. It was found that for each such design there exists a diagonal positive definite matrix X such that the design is X −1-balanced.

Relations between regular A-optimal chemical and spring balance weighing designs with diagonal covariance matrix of errors

Bronisław Ceranka, Małgorzata Graczyk (2013)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

In this paper, we study the relationships between regular A-optimal spring balance weighing designs and regular A-optimal chemical balance weighing designs. We give the basic relation between these designs in the case where the errors are uncorrelated and they have different variances. We give some examples of methods of construction of such designs.

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.

Efficiency of cropping system designs via base contrast

U. Bronowicka-Mielniczuk, J. Mielniczuk, T. Przybysz (2000)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The present article is a continuation of previous papers by the same authors devoted to the efficiency of crop rotation experiments. We focus on plans distinguished by the cyclical pattern of the incidence matrix. For practical reasons, we slightly modify the efficiency coefficient. The relation between the resulting efficiency coefficients is examined. In addition, we provide a background material on crop rotation experiments.

Evaluation of experimental designs in durum wheat trials

Anastasios Katsileros, Christos Koukouvinos (2015)

Biometrical Letters

Similarity:

Variability among experimental plots may be a relevant problem in field genotype experiments, especially when a large number of entries are involved. Four field trials on 24 durum wheat genotypes were conducted in 2013/14 in order to evaluate the efficiency of Incomplete Block, Alpha and Augmented designs in comparison with the traditional Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). The results showed that the RCBD can be replaced by an Alpha design, which provides better control of variability...

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...

Some constructions of nested balanced equireplicate block designs

Shivani Rai, Shakti Banerjee, Sanpei Kageyama (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

arious methods of constructing nested ternary and quaternary efficiency balanced and variance balanced designs are proposed by applying some repetitions of treatments in all possible pairs of treatments. In these designs sub-blocks and super-blocks may form different p-ary designs, where sub-blocks have higher efficiency as compared to super-blocks, i.e., any two elementary treatment contrasts in the sub-blocks can be measured with higher efficiency than any two elementary contrasts...

D-optimal cyclic two-dimensional block designs.

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

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

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.
