Abstract（摘要）：The course features the use of orthogonal arrays as statistical designs of experiments. Orthogonal arrays are rectangular arrangements of symbols, where the rows correspond to the different tests and the columns to different experimental factors. The symbols in each column are the settings of the corresponding factor. For a given run size, a given number of factors and a given number of factor settings, there can be many different arrays. Some are downright disastrous to use, while others can be very good.
The course has two main themes. First, different criteria are explained to quantify the usefulness of an orthogonal array as an experimental design. The second theme is the generation of all orthogonal arrays of a given set of parameters (run size, number of factors and number of factor settings) using a powerful algorithm.
About the lecturer（主讲人介绍）：Eric Schoen is a guest professor at the Faculty of Bioscience Engineering of the University of Leuven in Belgium and a statistical consultant at the contract research organization TNO in the Netherlands. His main area of interest is the statistical design and analysis of multi-factor experiments based on orthogonal arrays. Through his 25 plus years of consulting, he has an extensive experience in applying statistical designs to real-life experiments.
