Procedure for PCR Minimal Models
F-test:

significant predictors (ed)
R1  er2 / ed2  finv( p, d r , d d )

Statistical Analysis of Ligands Interactions
Is there more than additive effect of ligands on the cytokine
release (output)?

These terms are either 0 or
non-zero but fixed
Since the data corresponds
to fixed strength of the
stimulus
Gel-effect
Nonlinear-term
Random-error
Time-effect
Constant term
Effect of ligand 1
Effect of ligand 2
Null hypothesis: no synergism (more than additive effect) of the
ligands on the cytokine release, i.e., L1L2hi = 0

Essential idea:

Form the list of significant predictors, find the least number of
predictors with fit statistically equal to the fit for the full model

The minimal model should be better than a zero predictor
(average of the output) model

Use F-test for each of these

/ er2
 finv( p, d 0 , d r )

If full model itself is no better than the
trivial model: Accept the trivial model
