ABSTRACT

Nonlinear regression models are extensively applied across various scientific disciplines. It is vital to accurately fit the optimal nonlinear model while considering the biases of the Bayesian optimal design. We present a Bayesian optimal design by utilising the Dirichlet process as a prior. The Dirichlet process serves as a fundamental tool in the exploration of Nonparametric Bayesian inference, offering multiple representations that are well-suited for application. This research paper introduces a novel one-parameter model, referred to as the ’Unit-Exponential distribution’, specifically designed for the unit interval. Additionally, we employ a stick-breaking representation to approximate the D-optimality criterion considering the Dirichlet process as a functional tool. Through this approach, we aim to identify a Nonparametric Bayesian optimal design.
