Adaptive design methodologies use prior information to develop a clinical trial design. The goal of an adaptive design is to maintain the integrity and validity of the study while giving the researcher flexibility in identifying the optimal treatment. An example of an adaptive design can be seen in a basic pharmaceutical trial. There are three phases of the overall trial to compare treatments and experimenters use the information from the previous phase to make changes to the subsequent phase before it begins.
Adaptive design methods have been in practice since the 1970s, but have become increasingly complex ever since. One …

A Randomization Method To Control The Type I Error Rates In Best Subset Regression, Yasser A. Shehata, Paul White
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A randomization method for the assessment of statistical significance for best subsets regression is given. The procedure takes into account the number of potential predictors and the inter-dependence between predictors. The approach corrects a non-trivial problem with Type I errors and can be used to assess individual variable significance.
