| Abstract: | The orthogonal Latin hypercube design and its relaxation, and column-orthogonal design, are two kinds of orthogonal designs for computer experiments. However, they usually do not achieve maximum stratifications in multi-dimensional margins. In this paper, we propose some methods to construct column-orthogonal designs with multi-dimensional stratifications by rotating symmetric and asymmetric orthogonal arrays. The newly constructed column-orthogonal designs ensure that the estimates of all linear effects are uncorrelated with each other and even uncorrelated with the estimates of all second-order effects(quadratic effects and bilinear effects) when the rotated orthogonal arrays have strength larger than two. Besides orthogonality, the resulting designs also preserve better space-filling properties than those constructed by using the existing methods. In addition, we provide a method to construct a new class of orthogonal Latin hypercube designs with multi-dimensional stratifications by rotating regular factorial designs. Some newly constructed orthogonal Latin hypercube designs are tabulated for practical use. |
