OUTLIER ROBUST DRAPER & LIN DESIGNS

Abstract

Design robustness to a single outlier is studied for Draper (1990)designs by introducing and applying minimax outlier effect criterion. The criterion uses outlying effect of design points and attempts to minimizes the maximum outlying effect for a design point to have design with almost equal outlying effects and the design is adjusted for maximum outlying effect. Resultant outlier robust Draper & Lin designs have been exhibited as more compact, so less resource intensive, as compare to the other existing equivalent designs.
