Abstract
The problem of optimal experimental design for estimating parameters in linear regression models is placed in a general convex analysis setting. Duality results are obtained using two approaches, one based on subgradients and the other on Lagrangian theory. The subgradient concept is also used to derive a potentially useful equivalence theorm for establishing the optimality of a singular design and, finally, general versions of the original equivalence theorems of Kiefer and Wolfowitz (1960) are obtained.Keywords
