Popis: Optimal design for parameter estimation is a well developed subject but less attention has been paid to the problem of choosing the best number and optimum spacing of experimental settings for the independent variable x. Often it is known that the correct model is one from a family of models and it is important to decide on the minimum model to explain the data. An example would be using the F test to decide on the number of exponentials in a compartmental model or to decide upon the order of a rational function with steady state enzyme kinetic data and the theory necessary to solve this problem is available1–4.
