    Large applications of linear mixed models

    In a previous post I summarily described our options for (generalized to varying degrees) linear mixed models from a frequentist point of view: nlme, lme4 and ASReml-R†, followed by a quick example for a split-plot experiment. But who is really happy with a toy example? We can show a slightly more complicated example assuming that […]

  • Linear mixed models in R

    A substantial part of my job has little to do with statistics; nevertheless, a large proportion of the statistical side of things relates to applications of linear mixed models. The bulk of my use of mixed models relates to the analysis of experiments that have a genetic structure. A brief history of time At the […]
