For this reason, fractal antennas are very compact, are multiband or wideband, and have useful applications in cellular telephone and microwave communications.

It is a special type of distillation.
Fractional factorial designs In statistics, fractional factorial designs are experimental designs consisting of a carefully chosen subset (fraction) of the experimental runs of a full factorial design. The subset or fraction is chosen so as to exploit the sparsity-of-effects principle to access information about the most important features of the problem studied, while using considerably fewer resources than a full factorial design.
