The following information is required for conversion from pseudo to real.

Compute the sum of the high real settings (∑U). It is used for U_pseudo conversion.
The Pseudo model example:
QuadraticPseudo=β1A+β2B+β3C+β12AB+β13AC+β23BC
Insignificant terms with a near zero coefficient should be included in this model.
U=q∑i=1Ui
Rewrite the model substituting…
XU−XU−1 for each component, change the X’s to the component ID being replaced.
The rewrite of the Quadratic Pseudo Example is:
Real=β1AU−AU−1+β2BU−BU−1+β3CU−CU−1+β12AU−AU−1BU−BU−1+β13AU−AU−1CU−CU−1+β23BU−BU−1CU−CU−1
Expand all terms and combine like terms, starting with higher order terms first.
Showing the BC quadratic term as an example. Use this procedure for each quadratic term.
β23BU−BU−1CU−CU−1
β23BUCU−BCU−CBU+BC(U−1)2
β23[BUCU(U−1)2+−BCU(U−1)2+−CBU(U−1)2+BC(U−1)2]
BUCU/(U−1)2 is a constant which requires special handling.
From the mixture design property of a constant total, we know that A+B+C=1 in terms of the reals. Rewrite BUCU as BUCU⋅1 and substitute [A+B+C] for 1, yielding BUCU⋅[A+B+C]. When expanded, the result is an adjustment to all the linear coefficients of β23BUCU/(U−1)2.
−β23BU/(U−1)2 is a correction that will be applied to the C coefficient.
−β23BU/(U−1)2 is a correction that will be applied to the B coefficient.
The BC coefficient is changed to β23/(U−1)2 in the real model.
Showing the C term as the example. Use this procedure for all the linear terms.
β3CU−CU−1=β3[CUU−1+−CU−1]
−β3/(U−1) is the base coefficient for the C linear effect. This will be adjusted by quadratic and other linear effect adjustments.
CU/(U−1) is a constant which is treated the same as the quadratic term’s constant becoming, β3CU/(U−1)⋅[A+B+C] . Each linear term in the pseudo model creates an adjustment to all linear terms in the real model.
After working through each term in the model, combine like terms into new coefficients for the real model.
βA=−β1U−1+β1AU+β2BU+β3CUU−1+β12(AUBU−BU)+β13(AUCU−CU)+β23(BUCU)(U−1)2
βB=−β2U−1+β1AU+β2BU+β3CUU−1+β12(AUBU−AU)+β23(BUCU−BU)+β13(AUCU)(U−1)2
βC=−β3U−1+β1AU+β2BU+β3CUU−1+β13(AUCU−AU)+β23(BUCU−BU)+β13(AUCU)(U−1)2
βAB=β12(U−1)2
βAC=β13(U−1)2
βBC=β23(U−1)2
