EMMREML {EMMREML}R Documentation

Fitting mixed models with known covariance structures.

Description

The main functions are emmreml, and emmremlMultiKernel.emmreml solves a mixed model with known covariance structure using the EMMA algorithm in Kang et.al. (2008). emmremlMultiKernel is a wrapper for emmreml to handle multiple random components with known covariance structures. The function emmremlMultivariate solves a multivariate gaussian mixed model with known covariance structure using the ECM algorithm in Zhou and Stephens (2012).
