INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • Different sets of interactions and different number of independent interactions may be confounded in different replications. • The package is also capable of generating regular fractional factorialplans for symmetrical factorial experiments. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • It also gives the analysis of the data generated from these designed experiments. • For the analysis, the treatment combinations are written in lexicographic order and renumbered from 1 to N, where N is the total number of treatment combinations in the experiment. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • The data generated are analyzed as per the usual procedure of designs for single factor experiments. • Contrast analysis is then carried out to obtain the sum of squares due to main effects and interactions. A null hypothesis on any contrast of interest can also be tested. The user has to define such contrasts. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • The package is also useful for teaching the subject of factorial experiments to the postgraduate students in the class. • This can be useful for the researchers in Statistics with interest in experimental designs particularly in factorial experiments. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • It is user-friendly, interactive and password protected software. It is completely menu-driven and can also be operated using the ToolBars of SPFE. • Complete Help with Index, Contents and Search facility is available. The package can be run without the aid of a manual. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 SPFE 1.0 Features … • The package is completely Standalone and is compatible with the Latest Technologies. It runs on WINDOWS Platform. • Besides the features listed above, the package also works as an Editor with limited facilities viz. Open, save and print files, cut, copy, paste the text; undo the last action, etc. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Why SPFE … • If the number of factors or levels increases , the number of treatment combinations increases too rapidly. As a result block size becomes large and it is not possible to maintain homogeneity with in the blocks. This may result in large intrablock variances and hence large coefficient of variation. • To avoid that we use the concept of Confounding but again the generation of designs may be a problem and it is mathematically complicated. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Why SPFE … • Obtaining the randomized layout of the design may be the another problem. • The experimenter may also have a fear in mind regarding the analysis of data generated from these designs and then interpreting results. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Why SPFE … • Keeping these problems in mind this package has been developed. • Users /experimenters will not have to seek any help in selecting, generating, randomizing the design or analyzing the data generated. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Main Features of this Indigenous Software Package … SPFE 1.0 INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Main Features Includes … •Generation of selected design • Randomized layout of the design •Analysis of the data and • Probability calculation INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Generation of the design It includes … • Complete Factorial without confounding • Complete Factorial with confounding • Fractional Factorial Plans • Balanced Confounded Designs INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Generation of the design • When the option Complete Factorial without confounding is selected, the user is asked to enter of Factors(n), the number of levels of each Factor(s) and the number of replications (r) required. • Once these options are entered the design is generated. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Generation of the design • When the option Complete Factorial with confounding is selected, the user is prompted to enter the number of factors , the number of levels of each factor, the number of replications, the number of independent interactions to be confounded per replication and then the independent interaction to be confounded . INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Generation of the design •The option fractional factorial plan gives regular fractional factorial only after getting n and s. •The fractional factorial are restricted for main effects and two factor interactions. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Generation of the design • Selection of option (iv) provides a list of commonly used balanced confounded designs. It has a facility of displaying the generated design and its randomized layout.

INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … •Single Factor •Multiple Factor •Main Effects and Interactions •Single df Contrasts •User Defined Contrast •Look Up Table INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … Each of the Options Single Factor as well as Multiple Factor has two sub options - Unblocked Design - Block Design INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … • It provides the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) tables for testing the null hypothesis regarding the equality of treatment or treatment and block effects along the probability level of significance. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … • It also gives the value of coefficient of determination, Root mean square error and General Mean. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … • Treatment Means And Their Standard Errors All possible Pairwise Treatment Comparisons Prob>F (v v matrix with diagonal elements as . and off-diagonal elements as exact level of significance of the equality of corresponding treatment effects) The critical differences at 1 % and 5% level of significance are also displayed if the treatments are equireplicated (in case of unblocked designs) and equireplicated within each block in case of blocked designs. In other words, critical differences are displayed for balanced and orthogonal data only. INDIAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, NEW DELHI-110012 Analysis It includes … • For Multiple Factor Experiments • Based on the number of Factors and Levels, the contrast for main effects and interactions are then generated.
