Response Surface Methodology

Abstract : There is a problem faced by experimenters in many technical fields, where, in general, the response variable of interest is y, and there is a set of predictor variables x1, x2,...xk. For example, in Dynamic Network Analysis (DNA) Response Surface Methodology (RSM) might be useful for sensitivity analysis of various DNA measures for different kinds of random groups and errors.
