Embedded Direct Search of Optimal Designs for Finite Noise Experiments

Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2010, Vol 22, Issue 1

Abstract

We study experimental designs for the identification of nonlinear model parameters. As optimality criterion we assume minimality of the error in a huge number of identifications run on simulated data, which are generated with known parameters and a given error distribution. The optimal design depends on the nonlinear parameters. We find the optimal solution set by combining a path following strategy and a direct search method.
