Response surface methodology

TL;DR: A survey of the various stages in the development of response surface methodology RSM is provided, organized in three parts that describe the evolution of RSM since its introduction in the early 1950s.
Abstract: The purpose of this article is to provide a survey of the various stages in the development of response surface methodology RSM. The coverage of these stages is organized in three parts that describe the evolution of RSM since its introduction in the early 1950s. Part I covers the period, 1951-1975, during which the so-called classical RSM was developed. This includes a review of basic experimental designs for fitting linear response surface models, in addition to a description of methods for the determination of optimum operating conditions. Part II, which covers the period, 1976-1999, discusses more recent modeling techniques in RSM, in addition to a coverage of Taguchi's robust parameter design and its response surface alternative approach. Part III provides a coverage of further extensions and research directions in modern RSM. This includes discussions concerning response surface models with random effects, generalized linear models, and graphical techniques for comparing response surface designs.

Abstract: This paper systematically covers the significant developments of the last decade, including surrogate modeling of electrical machines and direct and stochastic search algorithms for both single- and multi-objective design optimization problems. The specific challenges and the dedicated algorithms for electric machine design are discussed, followed by benchmark studies comparing response surface (RS) and differential evolution (DE) algorithms on a permanent-magnet-synchronous-motor design with five independent variables and a strong nonlinear multiobjective Pareto front and on a function with eleven independent variables. The results show that RS and DE are comparable when the optimization employs only a small number of candidate designs and DE performs better when more candidates are considered.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study of the efficiency of different coagulants in textile wastewater treatment was carried out, and the results showed that the use of natural coagulate instead of synthetic ones has demonstrated significant advantages since it provides a low cost and environmentally friendly technology for removing dyes.

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods, illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables), and gamma (variance components).
Abstract: The technique of iterative weighted linear regression can be used to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters with observations distributed according to some exponential family and systematic effects that can be made linear by a suitable transformation. A generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods. These generalized linear models are illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables) and gamma (variance components).

SUMMARY The technique of iterative weighted linear regression can be used to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters with observations distributed according to some exponential family and systematic effects that can be made linear by a suitable transformation. A generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log-likelihoods. These generalized linear models are illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables) and gamma (variance components). The implications of the approach in designing statistics courses are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of estimating the parameters of a set of regression equations is reported which involves application of Aitken's generalized least-squares to the whole system of equations.
Abstract: In this paper a method of estimating the parameters of a set of regression equations is reported which involves application of Aitken's generalized least-squares [1] to the whole system of equations. Under conditions generally encountered in practice, it is found that the regression coefficient estimators so obtained are at least asymptotically more efficient than those obtained by an equation-by-equation application of least squares. This gain in efficiency can be quite large if “independent” variables in different equations are not highly correlated and if disturbance terms in different equations are highly correlated. Further, tests of the hypothesis that all regression equation coefficient vectors are equal, based on “micro” and “macro” data, are described. If this hypothesis is accepted, there will be no aggregation bias. Finally, the estimation procedure and the “micro-test” for aggregation bias are applied in the analysis of annual investment data, 1935–1954, for two firms.
