Title: Large Incomplete Factorial Designs and Uncertainty Analysis of Computer Models
Author(s): Max D. Morris*+ and Leslie M. Moore and Michael D. McKay
Companies: Iowa State University and Los Alamos National Laboratory and Los Alamos National Laboratory
Address: Department of Statistics, Ames, IA, 50011-1210,
Keywords: computer models ; experimental design ; sensitivity analysis ; total variation ; main-effect variation ; input screening
Abstract:

In uncertainty analysis, computer models are executed for input vectors selected by a restricted random process. In some of these schemes, the analysis can be framed as a random-effects ANOVA, with the selected values of the input vectors forming a series of incomplete factorial designs. We use this observation to generalize the class of designs in present use, and compare the performance of designs in this class.
