title: 'min2HalfFFD: Minimally Changed Two-Level Half-Fractional Factorial Designs'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.min2HalfFFD
abstract: In many agricultural, engineering, industrial, post-harvest and processing
  experiments, the number of factor level changes and hence the total number of changes
  is of serious concern as such experiments may consists of hard-to-change factors
  where it is physically very difficult to change levels of some factors or sometime
  such experiments may require normalization time to obtain adequate operating condition.
  For this reason, run orders that offer the minimum number of factor level changes
  and at the same time minimize the possible influence of systematic trend effects
  on the experimentation have been sought. Factorial designs with minimum changes
  in factors level may be preferred for such situations as these minimally changed
  run orders will minimize the cost of the experiments. This technique can be employed
  to any half replicate of two level factorial run order where the number of factors
  are greater than two. For method details see, Bhowmik, A., Varghese, E., Jaggi,
  S. and Varghese, C. (2017) <https://doi.org/10.1080/03610926.2016.1152490>. This
  package generates all possible minimally changed two-level half-fractional factorial
  designs for different experimental setups along with various statistical criteria
  to measure the performance of these designs through a user-friendly interface. It
  consist of the function minimal.2halfFFD() which launches the application interface.
