Intro to Computational Biology
ANOVA, or Analysis of Variance, is a statistical method used to determine if there are significant differences between the means of three or more groups. It helps in assessing whether any of those differences are statistically significant, which is crucial in experiments where multiple conditions are compared. In the context of microarray data analysis, ANOVA plays a key role in identifying genes that show different expression levels across different sample conditions.
