Restricted maximum likelihood estimation in generalized linear mixed models

Restricted maximum likelihood estimation in generalized linear mixed models

Restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation is a widely accepted and frequently used method for fitting linear mixed models, with its principal advantage being that it produces less biased estimates of the variance components. However, the concept of REML does not immediately generalize to the setting of non-normally distributed responses, and …
