A Dimension Reduction Technique for Estimation in Linear Mixed Models
This paper proposes a dimension reduction technique for estimation in linear mixed models. Specifically, we show that in a linear mixed model, the maximum likelihood problem can be rewritten as a substantially simpler optimization problem which presents at least two main advantages: the number of variables in the simplified problem is lower; the search domain of the simplified problem is a comp...
متن کاملDimension reduction and alleviation of confounding for spatial generalized linear mixed models
Non-Gaussian spatial data are very common in many disciplines.For instance, count data are common in disease mapping, and binary data are common in ecology.When fitting spatial regressions for such data, one needs to account for dependence to ensure reliable inference for the regression coefficients. The spatial generalized linear mixed model offers a very popular and flexible approach to model...
متن کاملParameter Estimation in Spatial Generalized Linear Mixed Models with Skew Gaussian Random Effects using Laplace Approximation
Spatial generalized linear mixed models are used commonly for modelling non-Gaussian discrete spatial responses. We present an algorithm for parameter estimation of the models using Laplace approximation of likelihood function. In these models, the spatial correlation structure of data is carried out by random effects or latent variables. In most spatial analysis, it is assumed that rando...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملComparison of Different Estimation Methods for Linear Mixed Models and Generalized Linear Mixed Models
Linear mixed models (LMM) and generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) are widely used in regression analyses. With the variance structure dependent on the random effects with their variance components, the parameter estimation of LMMs is more complicated than linear models (LM). Generally, we use maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) together with some procedure such as derivative free optimizatio...
