Abstract
This paper studies efficient designs for simultaneous model discrimination among polynomial regression models up to degree k. Based on the \({\Phi_{\boldsymbol{\beta}}}\) -optimality criterion proposed by Dette (Ann Stat 22:890–903, 1994), a maximin \({\Phi_{\boldsymbol{\beta}^{*}}}\) -optimal discriminating design is derived in terms of canonical moments for \({k\in\mathbb{N}}\) . Theoretical and numerical results show that the proposed design performs well for model discrimination in most of the considered models.
