Plackett-Burman experimental design is used to identify the most important factors early in the experimentation phase when complete knowledge about the system is usually unavailable. Developed in 1946 by statisticians Robin L. Plackett and J.P. Burman, it is an efficient screening method to identify the active factors using as few experimental runs as possible. In […]

Although often a response is continuous in nature, there are some cases in which the response falls in the attribute category (e.g., pass/fail, […]
