rsm-package | R Documentation |
The rsm
package provides functions useful for designing and analyzing
experiments that are done sequentially in hopes of optimizing a response surface.
The function ccd
can generate (and randomize) a central-composite
design; it allows the user to specify an aliasing or fractional blocking structure.
The function bbd
generates and randomizes a Box-Behnken design.
The function ccd.pick
is useful for identifying good parameter choices
in central-composite designs. Functions cube
, star
, foldover
, dupe
, and djoin
are also provided to build-up designs from individual blocks. The function varfcn
allows the experimenter to examine the predictive capabilities of a design before collecting data.
The function rsm
is an enhancement of lm
that provides
for additional analyses peculiar to response surfaces. It requires a model formula
that contains a call to FO
or SO
to specify a first- or
second-order model. Once the model is fitted, the steepest
function may be used to obtain the direction of steepest ascent (or descent).
canonical.path
is an alternative to steepest
for second-order
response surfaces.
In RSM methods, appropriate coding of data is
important not only for numerical stability, but for proper scaling
of results; the function coded.data
and its relatives facilitate
this coding requirement.
Finally, a few more functions are provided that may be useful beyond response-surface applications.
contour.lm
, persp.lm
, and image.lm
aids in visualizing a response surface,
or of any other lm
object where a surface is fitted. model.data
recovers the data used in a lm
call, but unlike model.frame
, no
polynomials, factors, etc. are expanded.
For more information and examples, use ‘vignette("rsm")’ and ‘vignette("rs-illus")’. Additionally, ‘vignette("rsm-plots")’ provides some illustrations of the graphics functions.
