Fractional Factorial Experiments • Method for Strategically Picking a Subset of a 2k Design • Used for Screening purposes • Has much Higher Power for detecting Effects through hidden replication • Can be used to estimate some interactions and limited optimization

Hierarchical Ordering Principle Venus – Moon – Jupiter align Jupiter Mars Venus Crescent Moon ▪Although its possible that three planets may align with the moon, its more often that two planets will align with moon than three ▪Likewise though three factor interactions and higher order interactions are possible, its more likely that large effects will be main effects or two factor interactions
Would these conclusions have been reached using one at a time experimentation?
· In a one half fraction of a 2k experiment every effect that could be estimated was confounded with one other effect, thus one half the effects had to be assumed negligible in order to interpret or explain the results · In a one quarter fraction of a 2k experiment every effect that can be estimated is confounded with three other effects, thus three quarters of the effects must be assumed negligible in order to interpret or explain the results · In a one eighth fraction of a 2k experiment every effect that can be estimated is confounded with seven other effects, thus seven eights of the effects must be assumed negligible in order to interpret or explain the results, etc.
Creating a 2k-p Design 1. Create a full two-level factorial in k-p factors 2. Add each of the remaining p factors by assigning them to a column of signs for an interaction among the first k-p columns

Another possible set of generators is: Resulting in the following Alias Structure
Resolution as a criteria for choosing generators R, the resolution, is the length of the shortest word in the defining relation. Resolution III – main effects confounded with two-factor interactions Resolution IV – main effects confounded with three-factor interactions, and two factor interactions confounded with other two-factor interactions Resolution V – main effects confounded with four-factor interactions, two-factor interactions confounded with three-factor interactions. In this case if you are willing to assume three factor interactions and higher are negligible, you can estimate all main effects and two factor interactions Higher Resolution means main effects are confounded with higher order interactions
