Bayesian design for measuring cerebral blood-flow
Optimal designs for biological models
Computer adaptive testing
Ground water modelling
Epidemiological studies and pharmacological models
Applied Optimal Designs bridges the gap between theory and practice, drawing together a selection of incisive articles from reputed collaborators. Broad in scope and inter-disciplinary in appeal, this book highlights the variety of opportunities available through the use of optimal design. The wide range of applications presented here should appeal to statisticians working with optimal designs, and to practitioners new to the theory and concepts involved.
