D- And A- Optimal Orthogonally Blocked Mixture Component-Amount Designs via Projections
Abstract
Mixture experiments are usually designed to study the effects on the response by changing the relative proportions of the mixture ingredients. This is usually achieved by keeping the total amount fixed but in many practical applications such as medicine or biology, not only are the proportions of mixture ingredients involved but also their total amount is of particular interest. Such experiments are called mixture amount experiments. In such experiments, the usual constraint on the mixture proportions that they should sum to unity is relaxed. The optimality of the design strictly depends on the nature of the underlying model. In this paper, we have obtained D- and A- optimal orthogonally blocked mixture component-amount designs in two and three ingredients via projections based on the reduced cubic canonical model presented by Husain and Sharma [7] and the additive quadratic mixture model proposed by Husain and Parveen [3], respectively.References
