Simplex-based screening designs for estimating metamodels
نویسنده
چکیده
The screening method proposed by Morris in 1991 allows to identify the important factors of a model, including those involved in interactions. This method, known as the elementary effects method, relies on a “one-factor-at-a-time” (OAT) design of experiments, i.e. two successive points differ only by one factor. In this article, we introduce a non-OAT simplex-based design for the elementary effects method. Its main advantage, compared to Morris’s OAT design, is that the sample size doesn’t collapse when the design is projected on sub-spaces spanned by groups of factors. The use of this design to estimate a metamodel depending only on the (screened) important factors is discussed.

Sensitivity Analysis of Simulation Models
This contribution presents an overview of sensitivity analysis of simulation models, including the estimation of gradients. It covers classic designs and their corresponding (meta)models; namely, resolution-III designs including fractional-factorial twolevel designs for rst-order polynomial metamodels, resolution-IV and resolution-V designs for metamodels augmented with twofactor interactions,...
متن کاملShrinkage simplex-centroid designs for a quadratic mixture model
A simplex-centroid design for q mixture components comprises of all possible subsets of the q components, present in equal proportions. The design does not contain full mixture blends except the overall centroid. In real-life situations, all mixture blends comprise of at least a minimum proportion of each component. Here, we introduce simplex-centroid designs which contain complete blend...
متن کاملSequential Designs for Simulation Experiments: Nonlinear Regression Metamodeling
In this paper we propose a method to select an experimental design for estimating nonlinear simulation metamodels. Through a careful selection of design points, the method provides better fitting results than equally spaced point selection, with the same simulation effort. This method accounts for the input/output function of the simulation model, possibly a mathematical function nonlinear in t...
متن کاملAn overview of the design and analysis of simulation experiments for sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis may serve validation, optimization, and risk analysis of simulation models. This review surveys ‘classic’ and ‘modern’ designs for experiments with simulation models. Classic designs were developed for real, nonsimulated systems in agriculture, engineering, etc. These designs assume ‘a few’ factors (no more than 10 factors) with only ‘a few’ values per factor (no more than ...
متن کاملSecond-Order Experimental Designs for Simulation Metamodeling
The main purpose of this study is to compare the performance of a group of second-order designs such as Box-Behnken, face-center cube, three-level factorial, central composite, minimum bias, and minimum variance plus bias for estimating a quadratic metamodel. A time-shared computer system is used to demonstrate the ability of the designs in providing good fit of the metamodel to the simulation ...
