Projection Uniformity of Asymmetric Fractional Factorials

The objective of this paper is to study the issue of the projection uniformity of asymmetric fractional factorials. On the basis of level permutation and mixture discrepancy, the average projection mixture discrepancy to measure the uniformity for low-dimensional projection designs is defined, the uniformity pattern and minimum projection uniformity criterion are presented for evaluating and comparing any asymmetric factorials. Moreover, lower bounds to uniformity pattern have been obtained, and some illustrative examples are also provided.
