For the compartmental model we determine optimal designs, which are robust against misspecifications of the unknown model parameters. We propose a maximin approach based on D-efficiencies and provide designs that are optimal with respect to the particular choice of various parameter regions.

A common approach in the design of experiment for the problem of comparing two means from a normal distribution is to assume knowledge of the ratio of the population variances. The optimal sampling ratio is proportional to the square root of this quantity. In this paper it is demonstrated that a...

For the binary response model, we determine optimal designs which are robust wit respect to the misspecifications of the unknown parameters. We propose a maximin approach and provide a numerical method to identify the best two point designs for the commonly applied link functions. This method is...

Classical regression analysis is usually performed in two steps. In a first step an appropriate model is identified to describe the data generating process and in a second step statistical inference is performed in the identified model. An intuitively appealing approach to the design of...

We consider the design problem for the estimation of several scalar measures suggested in the epidemiological literature for comparing the success rate in two samples. The designs considered so far in the literature are local in the sense that they depend on the unknown probabilities of success...
