Least-squares Methodology:

Yij = µ + Si +eij

Si = the effect of ith season (i=1, 2, 3, 4)

µ S1 S2 S3 S4 RHM

µ n. n1 n2 n3 n4 Y.
S1 n 1 n1 - - - Y1
S2 n2 - n2 - - Y2
S3 n3 - - n3 - Y3
S4 n4 - - - n4 Y4

n. = ∑ni = n1 + n2 + n3 + n4
Y. = ∑Yi = Y1 + Y2 + Y3 + Y4

Properties of LS equations:
1. LSE are symmetry
2. Whatever the coefficients are found in µ equation, the
same coefficients are found in diagonal elements of the
symmetry matrix.
3. Coefficient of µ i.e., coeffi (µ) =∑Si = S1 + S2 + S3 + S4
µ in RHS i.e., Y. = ∑ RHS of all sub effect = ∑ Yi = Y1 + Y2 + Y3 +
Y4
4. All off-diagonal elements of corresponding sub-effect
should be zero

Imposing Restriction
In the above case, we are not able to solve the above equations
until some restrictions imposed to remove the empty cells
carrying in the above matrix. This can be done by row and
column wise reduction of the matrix except µ equation to
obtained the reduced least squares equations and maintain the
symmetry in the equation which is one of the properties of
least squares equations.
The estimated constants obtained by inverting the reduced
least squares equations and multiplying the inverse elements
with the reduced right hand members of the equation. In terms
of notation, we can write

µ m11 m12 m13 m14 Y.


S1 m21 m22 m23 m24 Y 1 - Y4
S2 = m31 m32 m33 m34 Y2 - Y4
S3 m41 m42 m43 m44 Y3 - Y4

Where, mij is the inverse elements of the reduced least-squares


variance-covariance matrix

Restriction - ∑Si = 0 , i.e., S1 + S2 + S3 + S4 = 0 because each and


every observation in each subset is deviating from mean.
Derived constant should be S4 = - (S1 + S2 + S3)

Setting up ANOVA
1. SS (Total) = SS of individual observation – CF
= ∑ ∑Yij2 - G2/N
Where, G = Grand Total and N is the total number of
observation
2. SS (Season) = B’Z-1B, where B’ = [S1 S2 S3], is the column
vector of the set constants
B = is the row vector, i.e., transpose of B’ and
m22 m23 m24

Z-1 = m32 m33 m34 = is the inverse of the

m42 m43 m44


segments of the variance-covariance matrix corresponding by
row and column to the set of the constants, i.e., S1 S2 and S3.
Y.
3. SS(error) = = ∑ ∑Yij2 – [µ S1 S2 S3] Y1- Y4
Y2 - Y4
Y3 - Y4
Thus the ANOVA will be as follows:

SOV df SS MSS F value


Between p-1
Seasons B’Z-1B B’Z-1B/p-1 = MSA/MSE
MSA

Error n. - p δ e2 δe2 /n. –p =


MSE

The F- value is compared with table value for testing the


significance of the factor.
