DT- optimality Criteria for Second Order Rotatable Designs Constructed Using Balanced Incomplete Block Design
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science - Year 2017, Vol 22, Issue 6
Abstract
Experimenters have come to a realization that a design can perform very well in terms of a particular statistical characteristic and still perform poorly in terms of a rival characteristic. Due to this studies have narrowed down to the area of optimality criteria. Some of these criteria include the alphabetic optimality criteria and compound optimality criteria. Compound optimality criteria are those that combine two or more alphabetic optimality criteria in one particular design. In this paper two alphabetic optimality D- and T- criteria are combined to obtain DT- compound optimality criteria for the existing second order rotatable designs using Balanced Incomplete Block Designs. The purpose of this paper is to bring a balance between to statistical properties; parameter estimation and model discrimination. This will aid those researchers who are interested in more than two desired traits in one design. In this analysis, we note that the more homogenous the design is the more optimal it becomes.

Existence and Stability of Equilibrium Points under Combined Effects of Oblateness and Triaxiality in the Restricted Problem of Four Bodies
The restricted four-body problem consists of an infinitesimal body which is moving under the Newtonian gravitational attraction of three finite bodies The three bodies (primaries) lie always at the vertices of an equila...
Algorithms for Solving Some Inverse Problems from Combinatorial Number Theory
In this paper we use the characteristic property of sumsets which states that there exists a proper subset tiling the set by translates to solve by an algorithmic methods, for nite sets, some inverse problems in combina...
On Characterizations of Some Types of Fuzzy Soft Sets in Fuzzy Soft Bitopological Spaces
In this paper, we introduce and study the notion of kernal operator in fuzzy soft bitopological space. Moreover, some important results related to this notion are obtained. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of Alexan...
The Behrens-Fisher Problem: A Z Distribution Approach
We propose the Z distribution to tackle the Behrens-Fisher problem. First, we define the Z distribution which is a generalization of the t distribution, and then find the pdf and cdf of the Z distribution. After that, we...
On Properties Related To *–Reversible Rings
In this paper, a class of *-rings which is a generalization of *–reversible rings is introduced. A ring with involution * is called central *–reversible if for a ,b∈R, whenever ab=0 ,b^* a is central in R. Since every *–...
