		<description>Thanks Matthew for making it clarify.  What I don't understand is with GWO we would need to test all combinations but any of the full-factorial approach we would test only a subset of total recipes.  You were mentioning GWO uses full-factorial approach, I think that is predecting the performance of the variations, or does that also limit the no. of combinations to be tested?</description>

		<description>Vijay,
Love the attention on Taguchi.  As a clarification, GWO does not employ the Taguchi method, instead using a full-factorial approach.  Nor does Optimost, which uses Optimal Design.  Vertster and Offermatica do.

Optimal Design and Taguchi are both "fractional factorial" approaches, meaning that you test a subset of the total permutations (or "recipes") and analyze the results to determine the best recipe and the contribution of each element in the test.
