OPTIMIZATION OF DATA PROCESSING PARAMETERS

Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for optimizing data processing parameters. A data set is received that represents a plurality of samples. The data set is processed using a data processing algorithm that includes one or more processing stages, each stage using a respective first set of data processing parameters to generate processed data. A design of experiment model is generated for the data processing algorithm based on the processed data and a set of response values. For each stage of the data processing algorithm, a second set of data processing parameters is calculated based on at least the design of experiment model.
