Abstract: | The linear model Y - N(Xb, σ2∑) with a restriction R'b = M'u + c is considered, where X, R, M, ∑ and c are known. Explicit formulae are obtained for the best linear unbiased estimator of K'b, for the F-test of the hypothesis K'b = W'v + a, and for the simultaneous confidence intervals of the parameters K′i b' s, where K = [K1,K2,…Ks], w, and a are known, none of the matrices X, ∑, R, M, K, and W is required to have full ranks, and the design X can be one - or multi-way,complete or incomplete, balanced or not balanced, connected or disconnected. |
