Modeling and Optimizing Process/Product Behavior using Design of Experiments
Experimentation is frequently performed using trial and error approaches which are extremely inefficient and rarely lead to optimal solutions. Furthermore, when it’s desired to understand the effect of multiple variables on an outcome (response), “one-factor-at-a-time” trials are often performed. Not only is this approach inefficient, but it also inhibits the ability to understand and model how multip..
