Nested Latin hypercube designs
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose an approach to constructing nested Latin hypercube designs. Such designs are useful for conducting multiple computer experiments with different levels of accuracy. A nested Latin hypercube design with two layers is defined to be a special Latin hypercube design that contains a smaller Latin hypercube design as a subset. Our method is easy to implement and can accommodate any number of factors. We also extend this method to construct nested Latin hypercube designs with more than two layers. Illustrative examples are given. Some statistical properties of the constructed designs are derived.

Construction of Nested Orthogonal Latin Hypercube Designs
Nested Latin hypercube designs (LHDs) are proposed for conducting multiple computer experiments with different levels of accuracy. Orthogonality is shown to be an important feature. Little is known about the construction of nested orthogonal LHDs. We present methods to construct them with two or more layers, making use of orthogonal designs. The constructed designs possess the property that the...
متن کاملOptimal orthogonal-array-based latin hypercubes
The use of optimal orthogonal array latin hypercube designs is proposed. Orthogonal arrays were proposed for constructing latin hypercube designs by Tang (1993). Such designs generally have better space filling properties than random latin hypercube designs. Even so, these designs do not necessarily fill the space particularly well. As a result, we consider orthogonal-array-based latin...
متن کاملA note on orthogonal Latin hypercubes
Latin hypercube designs have been found very useful for designing computer experiments. In recent years, several methods of constructing orthogonal Latin hypercube designs have been proposed in the literature. In this article, we report some more results on Latin hypercube designs, including several new designs.
متن کاملLatin hypercube designs with controlled correlations and multi - dimensional stratification
Various methods have been proposed to construct Latin hypercube designs with small correlations. Orthogonal arrays have been used to construct Latin hypercube designs with multidimensional stratification. To integrate these two ideas, we propose a method to construct Latin hypercube designs with both controlled correlations and multi-dimensional stratification. For numerical integration, the co...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional minimax Latin hypercube designs
We investigate minimax Latin hypercube designs in two dimensions for several distance measures. For the `-distance we are able to construct minimax Latin hypercube designs of n points, and to determine the minimal covering radius, for all n. For the `1-distance we have a lower bound for the covering radius, and a construction of minimax Latin hypercube designs for (infinitely) many values of n....
