Abstract:

Common misconceptions negatively impact the performance of typical application of response surface methodology in practice. Key issues include:

 When is an "optimal" design suboptimal?  Is too much randomization possible?  One shot RSM analysis or an adaptive learning exercise?  Are you ready to do an RSM?  Hitting the edge of the modeling world  Hidden dangers of no-intercept models in mixture analysis  Unintended consequences of using transformations  Full quadratic modeling or subset modeling?  When should tendency models be used?

These issues anchor a lively discussion of RSM practices.
