In addition, the unknown underlying distribution of and complicated dependency among variables such as heteroscedasticity increase the uncertainty of estimated parameters and decrease the effectiveness of control charts. In addition, the requirement of sufficient reference samples limits the application of traditional charts in high-dimension, low-sample-size scenarios (small n, large p). More difficulties appear when detecting and diagnosing abnormal behaviors caused by a small set of variables (i.e., sparse changes). In this article, we propose two change-point–based control charts to detect sparse shifts in the mean vector of high-dimensional heteroscedastic processes. Our proposed methods can start monitoring when the number of observations is a lot smaller than the dimensionality. The simulation results show that the proposed methods are robust to nonnormality and heteroscedasticity. Two real data examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control charts in high-dimensional applications. The R codes are provided online.Keywords: change-pointheteroscedasticityhigh-dimensional control chartsparse changesstatistical process monitoring (SPM) Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsZezhong WangZezhong Wang received her doctoral degree from the Department of Systems Engineering, City University of Hong Kong.

The current literature studies several design selection criteria and analysis methods for such designs. For two-level designs, the screening performance of optimal designs constructed under different optimality criteria remains similar, especially when the effect directions are not known in advance. The Gauss-Dantzig Selector (GDS) is the preferred analysis method for two-level designs. For the multi- and mixed-level supersaturated designs, despite the existence of multiple design optimality criteria and design construction methods, the literature lacks guidance for both the design selection and the choice of analysis method. Through extensive simulation studies, we show that the multi- and mixed-level designs constructed using different optimality criteria have equivalent screening performance for the unknown effect directions. For known effect directions, generalized minimum aberration-optimal designs have slightly better screening performance. On the analysis front, however, the story differs from two-level designs. While LASSO and GDS show superior performance among the analysis methods compared, they depend on the parameterization or the coding of factors. Since no single choice of parameterization is best across sparsity levels, scenarios, and designs, we propose using group LASSO, which is invariant to parameterizations. Finally, we characterize the settings in terms of the number of runs, factors, and the effect sparsity, which are too complex to get meaningful results from group LASSO.Keywords: group LASSOmain effectsmixed-levelscreening experimentsthree-level supersaturated design Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Data availability statementData availability is not applicable to this article as no new data were created or analyzed in this study.Additional informationNotes on contributorsRakhi SinghDr. Rakhi Singh is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Binghamton University in New York, USA.

Usually, the outputs of the first-layer simulator (also called the inner simulator) are partial inputs of the second-layer simulator (also called the outer simulator). How to design experiments by considering the space-filling properties of inner and outer simulators simultaneously is a significant challenge that has received scant attention in the literature. To address this problem, we propose a new sequential optimal Latin hypercube design (LHD) by using the maximin integrating mixed distance criterion. A corresponding sequential algorithm for efficiently generating such designs is also developed. Numerical simulation results show that the new method can effectively improve the space-filling property of the outer computer inputs. The case study about composite structures assembly simulation demonstrates that the proposed method can outperform the benchmark methods.Keywords: composites structures assembly processesGaussian processmaximin criterionoptimal LHDprincipal component scores AcknowledgmentsWe are grateful to the editor and all reviewers for their excellent work.

Such data is often distributed among various sites creating challenges for developing data-driven models. Specifically, data privacy and security concerns have been exacerbated in recent years and drove the demand to store and analyze data at the edge of networks rather than sharing it with a centralized server. Federated learning frameworks have been introduced as a solution to these concerns. These frameworks allow local clients to learn local models and collaborate with others to develop a more generalizable aggregated model while handling data privacy issues. In this article, we propose a federated generalized scalar-on-tensor regression framework where multiple local tensor models are learned at the edge, and their parameters are shared with and updated by an aggregator. Experiments on synthetic data sets and two real-world data sets from agriculture and manufacturing domains show the superiority of our approach over several benchmarks.Keywords: aggregated modelfederated learningpersonalized modelscalar-on-tensor regression AcknowledgementsWe would like to thank Ioannis Ampatzidis, Lucas Fideles Costa and Vitor Gontijo da Cunha for providing hyperspectral image data collected at the Southwest Florida Research and Education Center.

Experiments with both qualitative and quantitative factors are also encountered in other applications. The proposed ARSD method considers a sequential design criterion under the additive Gaussian process to deal with both qualitative and quantitative factors. Moreover, the adaptiveness of the proposed sequential procedure allows the selection of next design point from the adaptive design region achieving a meaningful balance between exploitation and exploration for optimization. Theoretical justification of the adaptive design region is provided. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by several numerical examples in simulations.
