Abstract

The role of uniformity measured by the centered L2-discrepancy (Hickernell 1998a) has been studied in fractional factorial designs. The issue of a lower bound for the centered L2-discrepancy is crucial in the construction of uniform designs. Fang and Mukerjee (2000) and Fang et al. (2002, 2003b) derived lower bounds for fractions of two- and three-level factorials. In this paper we report some new lower bounds for the centered L2-discrepancy for a set of asymmetric fraction factorials. Using these lower bounds helps to measure uniformity of a given design. In addition, as an application of these lower bounds, we propose a method to construct uniform designs or nearly uniform designs with asymmetric factorials.
