Analysis of variance (Anova) is an extremely important method in exploratory and confirmatory data analysis. Unfortunately, in complex problems (for example, splitplot designs), it is not always easy to set up an appropriate Anova. We propose a hierarchical analysis that automatically gives the correct Anova comparisons even in complex scenarios. The inferences for all means and variances are p...
