Abstract

Minimal neighbor designs are useful to balance out neighbor effects economically. The method of cyclic shifts provides the construction of these minimal designs in circular blocks only for v odd, where v is the number of treatments to be compared. Minimal circular weakly balanced neighbor designs are used for v even. In this article, two classes of minimal circular weakly balanced neighbor designs are constructed for v even. In class I, v/2 of all unordered pairs of two distinct treatments appear twice as neighbors while the remaining ones appear once. In class II, 3v/2 of all unordered pairs appear twice as neighbors.
