Optimal experiment design (OED) is a field of statistics that minimizes the number of experimental runs needed to estimate specific parameters, and thereby, it reduces the costs of experimentation.[@emery1998optimal]
It works with many degrees of freedom and can consider constraints, for example, when the sample space contains settings that are practically infeasible.
One form of OED is response-adaptive design[@hu2006theory], which concerns adaptive sampling designs for statistical experiments.
Here the acquired data (i.e., the observations) are used to adjust the experiment as it is in process.

In a typical non-adaptive experiment, decisions on how to sample are made and fixed in advance.
#### Plotting and low dimensional integration uses local sampling.
