covadoe_ridge_analysis
Ridge / steepest-ascent path of a quadratic RSM (Draper; Myers & Montgomery).
When the unconstrained optimum is a saddle or sits outside the studied region, this traces the
locus of best predicted response on spheres of increasing radius around the design center — the
direction to run the next experiments. Pass a fitted `model` (from fit_rsm) OR raw `data` +
`response` to auto-fit one. Returns the eigenvalue nature, stationary point, and the ridge `path`
(radius, real-unit settings, predicted response ± CI) ending at `recommended_settings`.Input Schema
