In this paper balanced optimal fractional factorial designs of 2m series which allow the estimation of the general mean, main effects and two factor interactions are described. Such designs are presented for each m with 4 < m < 6, and for a range of practical values of N, where N denotes the total number of level-combinations.The covariance matrices of the estimates of the effects are also presented for each design, with a set of simple formulae for calculating these estimates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
