Introduction Originally Yates (see []) gave e concept of weighing design. Afterward his wor was formulated by Hotelling (see []) and he gave e condition of attaining e lower bound by each of e variance of e estimated weights. Many statisticians did prominent wor in obtaining optimum weighing designs (see [3]-[7]). In recent years, different meods of constructing e optimum chemical balance weighing designs; using e incidence matrices of nown balanced incomplete bloc designs, balanced bipartite bloc designs, ternary balanced bloc designs and group divisible designs have been given in e literature (see [8]-[]). Construction meods of obtaining optimum chemical balance weighing designs using e incidence matrices of symmetric balanced incomplete bloc designs have been given by Awad et al. []-[4]; some pairwise balanced designs are also been obtained which are efficiency as well as variance balanced. In is paper; some oer new construction meods of obtaining optimum chemical balance weighing designs using e incidence matrices of nown symmetric balanced incomplete bloc designs are propose.

2 well as variance balanced designs are also been proposed. Let us consider a bloc design in which treatments arranged in b blocs and elements of e incidence matrix N are denoted by n ij, for all i =,,, ; j =,,, b, such at e j bloc contains j ex perimental units and e i treatment appears r i times in e entire design. A balanced bloc design is said to be (a) binary when n ij = 0 or, i =,,, ; j =,,, b. Oerwise, it is said to be nonbinary (see [7]); (b) ternary if n ij = 0, or, i =,,, ; j =,,, b, and it has parameters, b, ρ, ρ, r,, Λ ; where ρ, ρ are e number of times, occurs in e incidence matrix, respectively (see [5]); (c) generalized binary if n ij = 0 or x, i =,,, ; j =,,, b and some positive integer x ( > ), and it has parameters, b, r,, Λ (see [6]). A balanced incomplete bloc design is an arrangement of symbols (treatments) into b sets (blocs) such at () each bloc contains ( < ) distinct treatments; () each treatment appears in r ( > λ ) different blocs and; (3) every pair of distinct treatments appears togeer in exactly λ blocs. Here, e parameters of balanced incomplete bloc design (, b, r,, λ ) are related by e following relations ( ) ( ) ( ) r = b, r = λ and b Fisher s Inequality A balanced incomplete bloc design is said to be symmetric if b = ( consequently, r = ). In is case, incidence matrix N is a square matrix i.e. N = N. In case of symmetric balanced incomplete bloc design any two sets have λ symbols in common. Balancing of design in various senses has been given in e literature (see [7] [8]). In is paper, we consider e balanced design of e following types: ) variance balanced bloc designs; ) efficiency balanced bloc designs and; 3) pairwise balanced bloc designs. ) A bloc design is said to be variance balanced if and only if its C-matrix, R NK N, satisfies R NK N = ψ I ( ), for some constant ψ (see [9]-[]); where ψ is e unique nonzero eigen value of e matrix C wi e multiplicity ( ), I is e identity matrix. ) A bloc design is said to be efficiency balanced if R NK N = µ I + ( µ ) n r, for some constant µ (see [0]-[]); where µ is e unique non zero eigen value wi multiplicity ( ). For e EB bloc C= µ R n rr ; see [3] design N, e information matrix is given as ( )( ( ) ) b 3) A bloc design is said to be pairwise balanced if nn j= ij i j = Λ (a constant) for all i, i ; where i i and ii,,,,. A pairwise balanced bloc design is said to be binary if n ij = 0 or only, for all i, j and it has parameters, b, r,, Λ (= λ, say) (in is case, when r = r and = b, it is a BIB design wi parameters, b, r,, λ ). A design is said to form a nested structure, when ere are two sources of variability and one source is nested wiin oer. Preece (see [4]) introduced a class of nested BIB designs wi treatments, each replicated r times, wi two systems of blocs, such at (a) e second system nested wiin e first, wi each bloc from e first system (called super blocs) containing exactly m blocs from e second system (called sub-blocs). (b) Ignoring e sub-blocs, leaves a BIB design wi parameters, b, r,, λ. (c) Ignoring e superblocs, leaves a BIB design wi parameters, b, r,, λ. The, b, b, r,,, λ, λ and m are called e parameters of a nested BIB design. The parameters satisfy e following conditions: so at r = b = bm = b ( ) = ( ) r λ ( ) = λ ( ) r ( )( λ λ ) = ( ) m m r The following additional notations are used = [ b ] is e column vector of bloc sizes, r = [ rr r ] is e column vector of treatment replication, K = bb diag[ b], Rv v diag[ rr r ] b ri = j = n is e total number of experimental units, wi is N b = r and N i= j= =, =, Where a is e a vector of ones. Furermore µ represents e loss of information, i.e., µ represents an effi- 38
3 ciency of e design, ( ψ ) represents e variance of any normalized contrast in e intra bloc analysis (see [0] [3] [5] [6]). For given p objects to be weighted in groups in n weightings, a weighing designs consists of n groupings of e p objects and e least square estimates of e weight of e objects can be obtained by e usual meods when n p. Using matrix notations e general linear model can be written as: Y = Xw + e () where Y is n column vector of e weights of e objects, w is e p column vector of e unnown weights of objects and e is n vector of error components in e different observations such at E( e ) = 0 n and E( ee ) = σ I n. Also X = ( x ij ), ( i =,,, n; j =,,, p) is e n p matrix of nown quantities called design matrix whose entries are +, or 0. Let matrix X taes e values as: + if e j object is in e left pan in e i weighing xij = if e j object is in e right pan in e i weighing 0 if e j object is not in e i weighing The normal equations for estimating w are as follows: X Xwˆ = X Y () where ŵ is e vector of e weights estimated by e least squares meod. Singularity or non-singularity of a weighing design depends on wheer e matrix XX is singular or nonsingular, respectively. When X is of full ran, en it is obvious at e matrix XX is non-singular. Then in is case e least squares estimate of w is given by and e variance-covariance matrix of ŵ is ( ) ŵ= X X XY (3) Var w ( ˆ ) σ ( X X ) = (4) A weighing design is said to be e chemical balance weighing design if e objects are placed on two pans in a chemical balance. In a chemical balance weighing design, e elements of design matrix X = ( x ij ) taes e values as + if e j object is placed in e left pan in e i weighing, if e j object is placed in e right pan in e i weighing and 0 if e j object is not weighted in e i weighing. Hotelling (see []) has shown at e precision of e estimates of e weight of e object increases furer by placing in e oer pan of e scale ose objects not included in e weighing and us using two pan chemical balance. He proved at if n weighing operations have been done to determine e weight of p = n objects, e minimum attainable variance for each of e estimated weights in is case is σ n and he also shown at each of e variance of e estimated weights attains e minimum if and only if ( X X ) = ni p. A design satisfying is condition is called an optimum chemical balance weighing design.. Variance Limit of Estimated Weights Cerana et al. (see [8]) studied e problem of estimating individual weights of objects, using a chemical balance weighing design under e restriction on e number of times in which each object is weighed. A lower bound for e variance of each of e estimated weights from is chemical balance weighing design is obtained and a necessary and sufficient condition for is lower bound to be attained was given. Then Cerana et al. (see [8]) proved e following eorem: Theorem.. For any n p matrix X, of a nonsingular chemical balance weighing design, in which maximum number of elements equal to and in columns is equal to m, where m= max m, m,, m p (where m j be e number of elements equal to and in j column of matrix X). Then each of e variances of e estimated weights attains e minimum if and only if X X = mi (5) ( ) p Also a nonsingular chemical balance weighing design is said to be optimal for e estimating individual 39
4 weights of objects; if e variances of eir estimators attain e lower bound given by, ( ) σ Var wˆ = m; j =,,, p (6) Preece [4] introduced a class of nested BIB designs. Using is concept Banerjee; (see [7]-[9]) constructed e nested EB as well as VB designs, where e sub-blocs form ternary design D wi parameters (, b, ρ i, ρ i, r,, Λ ) while e super-blocs form generalized binary design D wi parameters (, b, r,, Λ ); where i =,. Proposition.. Existence of BIB design D wi parameters (, br,,, λ ) implies e existence of a nested EB as well as VB design. The sub-blocs form an EBT as well as VBT design wi parameters =, b = λ, ( )( ) ρ = r, ρ = r( ), r r ( ) Λ = λ ( + )( ), µ = ( + ) ( ) ( ) ( ) =, =,, ψ = Λ while e super-blocs form a generalized binary EB as well as VB design wi parameters =, b = λ =,, r ( ) r =, ( ) λ Λ =, ( ) ( ), ψ = [ Λ ] µ = Proposition.3. Existence of BIB design D wi parameters (, br,,, ) λ implies e existence of a nested EB as well as VB design. The sub-blocs form an EBT as well as VBT design wi parameters =, b = 3λ, ρ = r( )( 3 4), ( ) ρ = r, r r ( ) ( 3 Λ = λ 3 4), µ = ( ) 3( ) ( ) = 3, =,, ψ = Λ while e super-blocs form a generalized binary EB as well as VB design wi parameters b =, = λ, r r ( ) = 3, 3 =, Λ = λ( ) ( 3 ) ( ), ψ = [ Λ ] µ = 3. Construction of Design Matrix: Meod I 9, Consider a SBIB design D wi e parameters (,, λ ); each pair of treatments occurs togeer in λ blocs. Tae any pair of treatments, say, (θ, φ ) from is design. Then mae two blocs from e design which contains e pair (θ, φ ).. Give e negative sign to e treatment θ and eliminate e treatment φ while e oer ( ) remaining treatments of e same bloc remain as it is.. Give e negative sign to e treatment φ and eliminate e treatment θ while e oer ( ) remaining treatments of e same bloc remain as it is. The matrix N of design D is obtained. Now doing e same procedure for all possible pairs of treatments, we obtain matrix N i ; i =,,,. Then e incidence matrix N of e new design D so formed is e matrix having e elements, and 0; given as follows by juxtaposition 40
5 = (7) N N N N Then combining e incidence matrix N of SBIB design repeated s-times wi N we get e matrix X of a chemical balance weighing design as s-times X = N N N (8) Under e present construction scheme, we have n = λ + sb = λ ( ) + sb and p =. Thus e each column of X will contain δ = r ( )( ) + sr elements equal to, δ = r( ) elements equal to and r( )( + ) elements equal to zero. Clearly such a design implies at each object is weighted ( ) m = δ+ δ = r + sr times in n = λ + sb weighing operations. Lemma 3.4. A design given by X of e form (8) is non singular if and only if λ ( 3) ( 6λ 7) + + s( r λ) 0. Proof. For e design matrix X given by (8), we have and { ( )( 3) } { ( )( 5) } ( )( 5) XX = r + sr λ + sλ I + λ + sλj { ( 3) ( 6 7) } ( ) {( )( 5) } = λ λ+ + s r λi + λ + s J 3 {( 7 3 7) } λ { ( 3) ( 6λ 7) } ( λ) X X = r + + s + + s r e determinant (0) is equal to zero if and only if { + + } but 3 ( ) r s ( ) ( ) s( r ) ( )( 3) λ( )( 5) r + sr = + sλ ( ) ( ) s( r ) λ 3 6λ+ 7 + λ = 0 or 3 ( ) r s = 0 is positive and en det ( X X ) = 0 if and only if λ 3 6λ+ 7 + λ = 0. So e lemma is proved. Theorem 3.5. The non-singular chemical balance weighing design wi matrix X given by (8) is optimal if and only if ( )( ) (9) (0) λ 5 + s = 0. () Proof. From e conditions (5) and (9) it follows at a chemical balance weighing design is optimal if and only if e condition () holds. Hence e eorem. If e chemical balance weighing design given by matrix X of e form (8) is optimal en σ Var ( wˆ j ) = ; j =,,, p r ( ) + s Example 3.6. Consider a SBIB design wi parameters = b = 4, r = = 3, λ = ; whose blocs are given by (,,3), (,,4), (,3,4), (,3,4). 4
6 Theorem 3.5 yields a design matrix X of optimum chemical balance weighing design as X =
7 Clearly such a design implies at each object is weighted m = 8 times in n = 3 weighing operations and Var ( wˆ ) = σ 8 for each j =,, 3, 4. Corollary 3.7. If e SBIB design exists wi parameters (,, λ ); en e design matrix X so formed in (8) is optimum chemical balance weighing design iff < < 5 and s. Remar: In SBIB design wi parameters (,, λ ); if = 0 en e design matrix given in (8) is perfectly optimum and s = 0 in is case. Corollary 3.8. If in e design D ; is replaced by zero en e new design D so formed is a BIB design wi parameters V =, B =, R= r( )( ), K =, Λ= λ. Then e struc- ture form a pairwise VB and EB design = V, b = B + sb, r = R + sr, sλ = ( ) + and sλ µ = ( λ ) r +. ψ λ D s-times N N N N = () wi parameters = λ, =, λ 4. Construction of Design Matrix: Meod II sλ =Λ+, Consider a SBIB design D wi e parameters (,, λ ); each pair of treatments occurs togeer in λ blocs. Tae any pair of treatments, say, (θ, φ ) from is design. Then mae ree blocs from e design which contains e pair (θ, φ ).. Give e negative sign to e treatment θ and eliminate e treatment φ while e oer ( ) remaining treatments of e same bloc remain as it is.. Give e negative sign to e treatment φ and eliminate e treatment θ while e oer ( ) remaining treatments of e same bloc remain as it is. 3. Give e negative sign to bo e treatments θ and φ while e oer remaining treatments of e same bloc remain as it is. The matrix N of design D is obtained. Now doing e same procedure for all possible pairs of treatments, we obtain matrix N i ; i =,,,. Then e incidence matrix N of e new design D so formed is e matrix having e elements, and 0; given as follows juxtaposition: = (3) N N N N Then combining e incidence matrix N of SBIB design repeated s-times wi N we get e matrix X of a chemical balance weighing design as: Under e present construction scheme, we have n = 3λ + sb s-times X = N N N (4) and p =. Thus e each column of X 43
8 will contain { 3 ( )( ) } δ = r + sr δ = r elements equal to and n δ δ elements equal to zero. Clearly such a design implies at each object is weighted r m = δ+ δ = ( 3 ) + sr times in n = 3λ + sb weighing operations. Lemma 4.9. A design given by X of e form (4) is non singular if and only if r λ ( 3 0) + sr ( ) + sλ. Proof. For e design matrix X given by (4), we have and ( )( 3 0) elements equal to, ( ) r λ λ XX = + sr ( ) + sλ I + ( ) + sλ J r λ λ = ( 3 0) + sr ( ) + sλ I + ( ) + sλ J (5) r λ X X = ( 3 0) + sr + ( ) ( ) + sλ r λ ( 3 0) + sr ( ) + sλ (6) e determinant (6) is equal to zero if and only if r λ + sr = + + sλ ( 3 0) ( ) r λ + sr = + + sλ or ( 3 0) ( ) ( ) r λ + sr sλ r λ ( 3 0) + sr = ( ) + sλ. So e lemma is proved. Theorem 4.0. The non-singular chemical balance weighing design wi matrix X given by (4) is optimal if and only if but ( 3 0) ( ) ( ) is positive and en det ( X X ) = 0 if and only if λ ( ) + sλ = 0. (7) Proof. From e conditions (5) and (5) it follows at a chemical balance weighing design is optimal if and only if e condition (7) holds. Hence e eorem. If e chemical balance weighing design given by matrix X of e form (4) is optimal en σ Var ( wˆ j ) = ; j =,,, p r ( 3 ) + sr Example 4.. Consider a SBIB design wi parameters = b = 4, r = = 3, λ = ; whose blocs are given by (,,3), (,,4), (,3,4), (,3,4). 44
9 Theorem 4.0 yields a design matrix X of optimum chemical balance weighing design as X =
10 Clearly such a design implies at each object is weighted m = 30 times in n = 48 weighing operations and Var ( wˆ ) = σ 30 for each j =,, 3, 4. Corollary 4.. If e SBIB design exists wi parameters (,, λ ); en e design matrix X of e form (4) is optimum chemical balance weighing design iff 5 and s 4. Corollary 4.3. If in e design D ; is replaced by zero en e new design D so formed is a BIB design wi parameters V =, B = 3, R= 3r( )( ), K =, Λ= 3λ. Then e structure form a pairwise VB and EB design =, b = B + sb, r = R + sr, ( ) 3 3 s ψ = λ + µ ( ) and λ 3 3 s = +. r 5. Result and Discussion D s-times N N N N = (8) wi parameters =, =, λ =Λ+ sλ, The following Table and Table provide e list of pairwise variance and efficiency balanced bloc designs for Meods I and II respectively, which can be obtained by using certain nown SBIB designs.
