ASQ/ASA Fall Technical Conference Attendees - Sharpen those DOE Skills!
Expand your design of experiments (DOE) expertise at the 2019 Fall Technical Conference.
Martin Bezener will be teaching a pre-conference short course on Practical DOE and giving a session talk on binary data (abstracts are below). Shari Kraber will be hosting our exhibit booth and can discuss your DOE needs.
Short Course Abstract (Wed, Sep 25): Practical DOE: ‘Tricks of the Trade’
In this dynamic short-course, Stat-Ease consultant Martin Bezener reveals DOE tricks of the trade that make the most from statistical design and analysis of experiments. Come and learn many secrets for design of experiment (DOE) success, such as:
- How to build irregularly-shaped DOE spaces that cover your region of interest
- Using logistic regression to get the most from binomial data such as a pass/fail response
- Clever tweaks to numerical optimization
- Cool tools for augmenting a completed experiment to capture a peak beyond its reach
- Other valuable tips and tricks as time allows and interest expressed
Session 6A Abstract (Fri, Sep 27, 1:30pm): Practical Considerations in the Design of Experiments for Binary Data
Binary data is very common in experimental work. In some situations, a continuous response is not possible to measure. While the analysis of binary data is a well-developed field with an abundance of tools, design of experiments (DOE) for binary data has received little attention, especially in practical aspects that are most useful to experimenters. Most of the work in our experience has been too theoretical to put into practice. Many of the well-established designs that assume a continuous response don’t work well for binary data yet are often used for teaching and consulting purposes. In this talk, I will briefly motivate the problem with some real-life examples we’ve seen in our consulting work. I will then provide a review of the work that has been done up to this point. Then I will explain some outstanding open problems and propose some solutions. Some simulation results and a case study will conclude the talk.
