Background: Evaluating the importance of the different sources of variations is essential in microarray data experiments. Complex experimental designs generally include various fa...
It is "well known" that in linear models: (1) testable constraints on the marginal distribution of observed variables distinguish certain cases in which an unobserved ca...
An instrument is a random variable that is uncorrelated with certain (unobserved) error terms and, thus, allows the identification of structural parameters in linear models. In no...
