This is a graduate course, for Ph.D. students at the department of Computer Science and Electrical engineering only. The course is offered irregularly.
The course covers the basic principles of factorial and fractional factorial designs, basics of Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and response surface modeling.
The course is given as a seminar course, where students take turn presenting the contents of the book and solutions to problems.
At the end of the course, the students will perform an individual project, related to their own research. The project should be presented in a short written report.
