FATHER OF DOE RONALD A. FISHER
Rothamstead Experimental Station, England – Early 1920’s
![Page 5: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

FISHER’S FOUR DESIGN PRINCIPLES
1. Factorial Concept - rather than one-factor-at-a-time
2. Randomization - to avoid bias from lurking variables
3. Blocking - to reduce noise from nuisance variables
4. Replication - to quantify noise within an experiment

Traditional One-Factor-at-a-Time A common approach is one-factor-at-a-time experimentation.
Consider experimenting one-factor-at-a-time to determine the values of temperature and time that optimise yield.

Traditional One-Factor-at-a-Time
One-factor-at-a-time experimentation frequently leads to sub-optimal solutions.
Assumes the effect of one factor is the same at each level of the other factors, i.e. factors do not interact.
In practice, factors frequently interact.

Stages of Experimental Design
Designing an experiment involves much more than just selecting the sequence of experimental runs:
Historically, improper planning is the most common cause of failed experiments.
Plan Design Conduct Analyse Confirm

Determining the Appropriate Factors
Determining the factors to be included in your experiment is a critical part of planning.
• Exploring too many factors may be costly and time consuming.
• Exploring too few may limit the success of your experiment.
Prior knowledge and analysis of existing data are useful aids to identifying and prioritising factors for study. Other methods may include:
• Brainstorming
• Ishikawa

Selection of Factor Range is Critical With Two Level Designs …
![Page 27: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Selection of Factor Range is Critical With Two Level Designs …
By experimenting at the two settings in
yellow, X would be declared unimportant
![Page 28: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Selection of Factor Range is Critical With Two Level Designs …
By using half and often times much less than than
half the factor range X is declared important
![Page 29: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Selection of Factor Range is Critical With Two Level Designs …
By using half and often times much less than than
half the factor range X is declared important
Often leads to narrow factor ranges
to force linear relationships but
consequence is high risk of
determining sub-optimal solution
![Page 30: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Determining the Appropriate Responses
Selection of your responses will also be critical to the success of your experiment. Whenever possible:
• Choose variables that correlate to internal or external customer requirements
• Find responses that are easy to measure
• Make sure your measurement systems are precise, accurate, and stable
Analysis of current data, prior knowledge, measurement systems analysis are useful aids.

Fractional Factorials: Complex workflow from many factors to optimum settings
Tempting to miss out
middle step which can
result in selection of
wrong factors and decisions
![Page 33: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Definitive Screening Design
Identifies active main effects, uncorrelated with other effects.
May identify significant quadratic effects, uncorrelated with main effects and at worst weakly correlated with other quadratic effects.
If few factors turn out to be important, can identify significant two-way interactions uncorrelated with main effects and weakly correlated with other higher order effects.
One stage experiment if three or fewer factors important:
• progress straight to full quadratic model
• optimise process with no further experimentation
• otherwise augment DSD for optimization goals
![Page 34: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Copyright © 2014, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.
New Class of Screening Design
Three-level screening design
• 2m + 1 runs based on m fold-over pairs and an overall center point, where m is number of factors
• the values of the ±1 entries in the odd-numbered runs are determined using optimal design.
![Page 35: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Copyright © 2014, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.
Use of Three Level DesignsAdvantageous
Scientists and engineers are uncomfortable using two-level designs
• Restricting factor ranges may result in sub-optimal solutions
• Scientific/engineering judgment suggests relationships nonlinear over wide ranges
Investigators frequently have an opinion regarding the “best” levels of each factor for optimizing a response
• Experimental region centered at these levels.
• Two-level design might screen out an important factor when experimental region centred at “best”
• Adding centre points allows test for curvature
• However ambiguity over factors causing curvature
• DSD avoids ambiguity by making it possible to uniquely identify the source(s) of curvature.

Case Study 1: Optimising a Chemical Process
Why Consider Definitive Screening Designs?
![Page 38: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Background
Five factors
One response yield
Goal optimise yield
Keep total cost of experimentation to minimum
Contrast traditional approach of main effect screening design plus augmentation to RSM with DSD
![Page 39: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Copyright © 2014, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.
Traditional screening approach correlates main effects with two factor interaction effects
Cost constraint and inexperience with such designs can lead to missed DOE steps
Investigator missed step of augmenting main effect design to separate correlated interaction effects from assumed important main effects
Resulted in wrong set of factors selected for RSM design which results in wrong solution

Correct Interpretation of Fitted Model
Y = b0 + b1*(X1+X2X3) + b2*(X2+X1X3) + b3*(X3+X1X2) + Error

Missed Step Augments Initial Design to Separate Main Effects From Interactions
![Page 44: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

Model Interpretation of Augmented Design
Correct Interpretation of Model Fitted to Augmented design
Y = b0 + b1*X1 + b2*X2 + b3*X3 + b12*X1X2 + b13*X1X3 + b23*X2X3 + Error
Allows clear separation of main and interaction effects
This step was missed in case study prior to modelling curvature
![Page 45: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

DSD results in correct identification of important factors due to non correlated main and two factor interaction effects
Because just three factors are important DSD results in one step design:
• In addition to correctly identifying correct factors
• DSD requires no augmentation to identify optimal settings of important factors

Conclusions
Fractional factorial designs can lead to selection of wrong factor set
Complex workflow for avoiding this risk which may be misunderstood or not applied by users new to DOE
May lead to conclusion that DOE does not work for us!
DSD simplifies DOE process and removes risk of selecting wrong factor set
Provides one step DOE when three or fewer important factors
• Sufficient to identify correct factor set and determine best settings of selected factors

Aspartate Aminotransferase Assay: http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/EC2/6/1/1.html
Six factors (reagent conditions): tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, pH, L-aspartic acid, pyridoxal-5’-phosphate, 2-oxoglutarate, and malate dehydrogenase
Response: aspartate aminotransferase activity measured for human serum with above normal activity at 30C
Goal: select reagent conditions that maximise aspartate aminotransferase activity
Example selected to stress DSD when >3 factors are important, in this case 5 factors are important.

Background
Expert knowledge tells us
• Certain conditions will give poor results (hence, constraints)
• Behaviour very non-linear
We will show

Conclusions
Custom Design permits studying any:
• combination of factors with or without constraints,
• number of factor levels,
• blocking structure.
Build your design to suit the problem instead of fitting the problem into a design

ROLE OF STATISTICAL MODELLING AND DOE IN LEARNING
![Page 67: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)

Data Sources
DOE and/or observational (historical)
Potential problems with observational data:
• X’s are correlated – identification of “best” model difficult
• Outliers (potential or real) - bias model estimation
• Missing data cells – result in loss of whole data rows with traditional least squares based analysis
• Range over which X’s varied may be limited –restricting model usefulness
• May not have measured all relevant X’s
In some situations these can also be issues with DOE datasets

WHAT IS HOLISTIC DOE?
![Page 69: Exploring Best Practises in Design of Experiments](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061221/54bfb7394a7959515b8b4576/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)

Holistic DOE Approach: Integrating Statistical Modelling and DOE
Learning is incremental and effective statistical modelling of observational data aids design of next experiment.
Analysis approach needs to manage real (messy) data simply
• Correlated X’s, outliers, missing cells
• Quickly deliver “best” current model to revise with new DOE data
• Aid better analysis of new experimental data when unexpected occurs
• Build models based on individual datasets and aggregated data
Good statistical modelling integrated with DOE helps reduce total learning time, effort and cost
It would be a shame to not use pre-existing data that comes for free

Conclusions
Analysis of prior data helps identify factors and ranges to use in next DOE.
Analysis of prior data helps reduce risk and increase efficiency and effectiveness of future experiments.
DOE is not just for science and engineering.
