Download or read book Linear and Generalized Linear Mixed Models and Their Applications written by Jiming Jiang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers two major classes of mixed effects models, linear mixed models and generalized linear mixed models. It presents an up-to-date account of theory and methods in analysis of these models as well as their applications in various fields. The book offers a systematic approach to inference about non-Gaussian linear mixed models. Furthermore, it includes recently developed methods, such as mixed model diagnostics, mixed model selection, and jackknife method in the context of mixed models. The book is aimed at students, researchers and other practitioners who are interested in using mixed models for statistical data analysis.
