Factorial Design for Efficient Experimentation
@article{Spall2010FactorialDF, title={Factorial Design for Efficient Experimentation}, author={James C. Spall}, journal={IEEE Control Systems}, year={2010}, volume={30}, pages={38-53} }
While James Dyson's eponymous company, Dyson Ltd., based in Malmesbury, United Kingdom, is known to make high-quality vacuum cleaners, Dyson might have saved himself and his company a lot of time and money if he had been aware of the factorial design approach to experimentation. In fact, as discussed below, the statement of Dyson on cause and effect is incorrect. It is possible to learn what improves a system by changing more than one input variable at a time. Furthermore, this learning can be…

A novel two stage algorithm for construction of RBF neural models based on A-optimality criterion
- Computer Science2013 Ninth International Conference on Natural Computation (ICNC)
- 2013
A new method is proposed which improves the compactness of the resultant RBF neural model, but also the accuracy of estimated model coefficients by effectively incorporating the A-optimality design criterion into a recently proposed two-stage subset selection, while the computational efficiency is still retained from the original two- stage selection method by introducing a residual matrix.
