The QTL effect expressed as a percentage of the total variance using the reduction in the sum of the squares after the addition of the marker in the fitted model varies between 2.3 and 4.9% in the F8 and between 4.4 and 4.8% in the F16 depending on age.
Therefore, we used a factor analysis approach using a principal component analysis (PCA, total variance used) as a reduction method [64] to combine binding data from the two radiotracers into a single factor.
This partial variance is subtracted from the total variance yielding the frequency related variance reduction expressed as percentage of the total variance.
Similarly, aging can be associated to a reduction of the total variance of HRV and a relative predominance of sympathetic modulation of HRV [16] [21].
In the older group, SE(3) and CCEmin were reduced during REM sleep compared to S1-2, S3-4 and W. Compared to young subjects, during W and sleep the older subjects showed a lower RR interval and reduced total variance as well as a significant reduction of SE(3) and CCEmin.
In our analyses nodes differing further up in the tree are considered as more influential, as more patients are affected by these rules and they also contribute more to the reduction of the total variance.
If all else were to remain constant, then this reduction in stochastic noise would simultaneously increase heritability (as the total variance decreases) and boost the ability to discover associations with biological meaning, such as age.
Despite an overall reduction in the technical variation between probes, the fraction of the total variance contributed by each level (inter-chip, -run, and -experiment) was unaffected by standard, array-wise, quantile normalisation.
The retained factors which led to a reduction of the initial dimension of the data set and explained about 84.173% of the total variance.
