In this paper, we propose two simple yet efficient computational algorithms to obtain approximate optimal designs for multi-dimensional linear regression on a large variety of design spaces. We focus on the two commonly used optimal criteria, $D$- and $A$-optimal criteria. For $D$-optimality, we provide an alternative proof for the monotonic convergence for $D$-optimal criterion and propose an efficient computational algorithm to obtain the approximate $D$-optimal design. We further show that the proposed algorithm converges to the $D$-optimal design, and then prove that the approximate $D$-optimal design converges to the continuous $D$-optimal design under certain conditions. For $A$-optimality, we provide an efficient algorithm to obtain approximate $A$-optimal design and conjecture the monotonicity of the proposed algorithm. Numerical comparisons suggest that the proposed algorithms perform well and they are comparable or superior to some existing algorithms.

Supersaturated design (SSD) has received much recent interest because of its potential in factor screening experiments. In this paper, we provide equivalent conditions for two columns to be fully aliased and consequently propose methods for constructing $E(f_{mathrm{NOD}})$- and $chi^2$-optimal mixed-level SSDs without fully aliased columns, via equidistant designs and difference matrices. The methods can be easily performed and many new optimal mixed-level SSDs have been obtained. Furthermore, it is proved that the nonorthogonality between columns of the resulting design is well controlled by the source designs. A rather complete list of newly generated optimal mixed-level SSDs are tabulated for practical use.
In this note we consider the optimal design problem for estimating the slope of a polynomial regression with no intercept at a given point, say z. In contrast to previous work, which considers symmetric design spaces we investigate the model on the interval $[0, a]$ and characterize those values of $z$, where an explicit solution of the optimal design is possible.
We develop $D$-optimal designs for linear models with first-order interactions on a subset of the $2^K$ full factorial design region, when both the number of factors set to the higher level and the number of factors set to the lower level are simultaneously bounded by the same threshold. It turns out that in the case of narrow margins the optimal design is concentrated only on those design points, for which either the threshold is attained or the numbers of high and low levels are as equal as possible. In the case of wider margins the settings are more spread and the resulting optimal designs are as efficient as a full factorial design. These findings also apply to other optimality criteria.
The minimum aberration criterion has been frequently used in the selection of fractional factorial designs with nominal factors. For designs with quantitative factors, however, level permutation of factors could alter their geometrical structures and statistical properties. In this paper uniformity is used to further distinguish fractional factorial designs, besides the minimum aberration criterion. We show that minimum aberration designs have low discrepancies on average. An efficient method for constructing uniform minimum aberration designs is proposed and optimal designs with 27 and 81 runs are obtained for practical use. These designs have good uniformity and are effective for studying quantitative factors.
For a joint model-based and design-based inference, we establish functional central limit theorems for the Horvitz-Thompson empirical process and the Hajek empirical process centered by their finite population mean as well as by their super-population mean in a survey sampling framework. The results apply to single-stage unequal probability sampling designs and essentially only require conditions on higher order correlations. We apply our main results to a Hadamard differentiable statistical functional and illustrate its limit behavior by means of a computer simulation.
