Abstract

Binary operations on commutative Jordan algebras are used to carry out the ANOVA of a two layer model. The treatments in the first layer nests those in the second layer, that being a sub-model for each treatment in the first layer. We present an application with data retried from agricultural experiments.

Keywords

commutative Jordan algebras, variance components, orthogonal models, ANOVA
