Recent advances in crossover designs and related studies
Abstract: Crossover design is a design of experiments, where a subject receives a
sequence of various treatment over a period of time points. While it provides the
within subject comparison between treatment effects, the potential carryover effect
in the model makes the study of optimal crossover designs quite complicated. Such
study was initiated by Hedayat and Afsarinejad (1978), and many researchers have
contributed to the general theory for optimal designs. Among them, Kushner (1997)
developed very elegant results for the optimality conditions in the approximate
design theory. My talk will mainly focus on this approach and talk about some recent
progress as well as future challenges. I will also share some of my own thoughts of
how to tackle these problems.
