Notes:
Fisher variance ratio tests are developed for determining (1) the number of statistically significant abstract factors responsible for a data matrix and (2) the significance of target vectors projected into the abstract factor space. F-tests, developed from the viewpoint of vector distributions, are applied to various data sets taken from the chemical literature.
