1. Topics in optimal design of experiments
Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to optimal design of experiments in situations where the optimal design depends on unknown parameters. Such situations often occur when the response variable does not have normal distribution, as is the case with many generalized linear models (GLM) and many models for binary response. LÄS MER
2. Optimal design for dose-finding studies
Sammanfattning : One of the most complex tasks during the clinical development of a new drug is to find a correct dose. Optimal experimental design has as a goal to find the best ways to perform an experiment considering the available resources and the statistical model. Optimal designs have already been used to determine the design of dose-finding studies. LÄS MER
3. Optimal Design of Experiments for the Quadratic Logistic Model
Sammanfattning : Optimal design of experiments for binary data is the topic of this thesis. A particular logistic model including a quadratic term in the linear predictor is considered. Determining an optimal design for this model is complicated by the fact that the optimal design is dependent on the unknown true parameters. LÄS MER
4. Optimal adaptive designs and adaptive randomization techniques for clinical trials
Sammanfattning : In this Ph.D. thesis, we investigate how to optimize the design of clinical trials by constructing optimal adaptive designs, and how to implement the design by adaptive randomization. LÄS MER
5. Optimal Design and Inference for Correlated Bernoulli Variables using a Simplified Cox Model
Sammanfattning : This thesis proposes a simplification of the model for dependent Bernoulli variables presented in Cox and Snell (1989). The simplified model, referred to as the simplified Cox model, is developed for identically distributed and dependent Bernoulli variables. LÄS MER
