Abstract

In this note we exhibit the usefulness of invariance considerations in experimental design in the context of nonlinear models. Therefor we examine the equivariance of locally optimal designs and their criteria functions and establish the optimality of invariant designs with respect to robust criteria like weighted or maximin optimality, which avoid parameter dependence.
