Following the principles of the partition of the variance advocated by Sir R.A. Fisher, the experimental responses are factored into the quantitative contribution of main factors and interactions. A popular approach to perform this factorization in both ANOVA and ASCA(+) is through General Linear Models. Subsequently, different inferential approaches can be used to identify whether the contributions are statistically significant or not. Unfortunately, the performance of inferential approaches in terms of Type I and Type II errors can be heavily affected by missing data, outliers and/or the departure from normality of the distribution of the responses, which are commonplace problems in modern analytical experiments. In this paper, we study these problem and suggest good practices of application.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.06739v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2408.06739v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"considerations-for-missing-data-outliers-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/codaslab/glm_factorization_2024","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
