Saturated locally optimal designs under differentiable optimality criteria
We develop general theory for finding locally optimal designs in a class of
single-covariate models under any differentiable optimality criterion. Yang and
Stufken [Ann. Statist. 40 (2012) 1665-1681] and Dette and Schorning [Ann.
Statist. 41 (2013) 1260-1267] gave complete class results for optimal designs
under such models. Based on their results, saturated optimal designs exist;
however, how to find such designs has not been addressed. We develop tools to
find saturated optimal designs, and also prove their uniqueness under mild
conditions.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/14-AOS1263 the Annals of
