Optimal Designs For Factorial Experiments and Polynomial Equations
Abstract: This talk will give an introduction on locally optimal design
for two level factorial experiments with binary response. Basically,
we are trying to find optimal experimental designs with respect to some
statistical criterion. In many cases, we end up with optimizing a
polynomial function or a ratio of polynomial functions. It is important
in statistics to find explicit solutions and to study the properties
of the solutions. Many open questions may require more powerful
mathematical tools. Hopefully algebraic statistics can play an active
role in it.
