Area of Science:

  • Statistics
  • Experimental Design

Background:

  • Repeated measures experiments are common in various scientific fields.
  • Efficiently selecting time points is crucial for data quality and resource optimization.
  • Existing methods may not adequately address complex correlation structures and model uncertainties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine optimal time point selection and allocation in repeated measures experiments.

  • To enhance the efficiency and reliability of repeated measures studies.

Main Methods:

  • Numerical computation of D-optimal cohort designs.
  • Application to polynomial models (first- and second-degree).
  • Inclusion of random intercept, random slope, and autoregressive correlations.
