Overview

  • Covers the constructions of optimal experimental designs comprehensively
  • Provides a novel framework for understanding optimal designs, based on the theory of cubature formulas in analysis and spherical/Euclidean designs in combinatorics
  • Presents a fresh approach for introducing the theory of the cubature formula with reproducing kernel Hilbert space in functional analysis

About this book

This book is the modern first treatment of experimental designs, providing a comprehensive introduction to the interrelationship between the theory of optimal designs and the theory of cubature formulas in numerical analysis. It also offers original new ideas for constructing optimal designs.

The book opens with some basics on reproducing kernels, and builds up to more advanced topics, including bounds for the number of cubature formula points, equivalence theorems for statistical optimalities, and the Sobolev Theorem for the cubature formula. It concludes with a functional analytic generalization of the above classical results.

Although it is intended for readers who are interested in recent advances in the construction theory of optimal experimental designs, the book is also useful for researchers seeking rich interactions between optimal experimental designs and various mathematical subjects such as spherical designs in combinatorics and cubature formulas in numerical analysis, both closely related to embeddings of classical finite-dimensional Banach spaces in functional analysis and Hilbert identities in elementary number theory. Moreover, it provides a novel communication platform for “design theorists” in a wide variety of research fields.


Reviews

“This book can be used in a PhD course for mathematicians or statisticians with a solid background in numerical analysis, and can be used as a reference for researchers who need to use Euclidean designs or cubature formulae or both.” (Fabio Rapallo, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2020)
