Construction of Full Order-of-Addition Generalization Simplex-Centroid Designs by the Directed Graph Approach

Abstract

The order-of-addition generalization simplex-centroid designs play a key role in mixture experiments, for example, the mixture experiments with process variables. The paper formally combines order-of-addition (OofA) with mixture components in the same experiment. This paper proposes a new algorithm which generates full OofA mth-degree generalization simplex-centroid designs for q components by a class of the direction graphs, and a series of examples also confirms the value of the proposed algorithm.
