Overview

About

Maintained by Sukanta DashFirst published 2025-12-101 releasesCRAN page ↗

Generates blocked designs for mixed-level factorial experiments for a given block size. Internally, it uses finite-field based, collapsed, and heuristic methods to construct block structures that minimize confounding between block effects and factorial effects. The package creates the full treatment combination table, partitions runs into blocks, and computes detailed confounding diagnostics for main effects and two-factor interactions. It also checks orthogonal factorial structure (OFS) and computes efficiencies of factorial effects using the methods of Nair and Rao (1948) doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1948.tb00005.x. When OFS is not satisfied but the design has equal treatment replications and equal block sizes, a general method based on the C-matrix and custom contrast vectors is used to compute efficiencies. The output includes the generated design, finite-field metadata, confounding summaries, OFS diagnostics, and efficiency results.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("mixedfact", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-mixedfact

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-mixedfact

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-mixedfact

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
