Abstract

The use of loss function in studying the reduction in determinant of information matrix due to missing observations has effectively produced designs that are robust to missing observations. Modified central composite designs are constructed for non-standard models using principles of the loss function or equivalently first compound of (I ) matrix associated with hat matrix . Although central composite designs (CCDs) are reasonably robust to model mis-specifications, efficient designs with fewer design points are more economical. By classifying the losses due to missing design points in the CCD portions, where there are multiple losses associated with specified CCD portions, the design points having less influence may be deleted from the full CCD. This leads to a possible increase in design efficiency and offers alternative designs, similar in the structure of CCDs, for non-standard models.
