Abstract

The goal of the indifference zone formulation of selection (Bechhofer, 1954) consists of selecting the t best variants out of k variants with a probability of at least 1 − β if the parameter difference between the t ‘good’ variants and the k − t ‘bad’ variants is not less than Δ. A review of generalized selection goals not using this difference condition is presented. Within some general classes of distributions, the suitable experimental designs for all these selection goals are identical. Similar results are described for the problem of selecting the best variant in comparison with a control, or standard.
