A Spectral Analysis Approach for Experimental Designs

In this paper we show how the approach of spectral analysis generalizes the standard ANOVA-based techniques for studying data from designed experiments. Several examples are worked out in detail, including a thorough analysis of Calvin’s famous ice cream data.
