The Virginia Tech Department of Statistics will host the 12th event in the Design and Analysis of Experiments conference series, slated to take place May 15-17. The conference will focus on emerging areas of research in experimental design as well as novel innovations in traditional areas.

This year’s event, which will be held primarily in the Data and Decision Sciences Building on the Blacksburg campus, will feature invited sessions, poster sessions, mentoring sessions, roundtable sessions, and a panel discussion.

What is the conference series?

The Design and Analysis of Experiments conference series began in 2000 with a regional event hosted by the Ohio State University and has since expanded to be international in scope, attracting leading researchers from across North America and the world.

Among the goals of the conference series is the provision of support and encouragement to junior researchers in the statistical field of design and analysis of experiments as well as stimulating interest in topics of practical relevance to science and industry. Notably, this year's events will pair junior and senior researchers for mentoring purposes.

Invited sessions

The agenda includes 10 invited sessions featuring national and global experts in the field of design and analysis of experiments:

  • Advancements in Screening Design, Nonregular Design, and Space-Filling Design
  • Causal Inference and Experimental Design
  • Covering Arrays and Combinatorial Testing
  • Design Issues in Uncertainty Quantification
  • Experimental Design for Transportation Studies
  • Factorial/Multi-level Design
  • Online Experimentation
  • Optimal Experimental Design
  • Orthogonal Arrays and Related Designs
  • Sequential Design, Active Learning, and Bayesian Optimization
