Objective

The purpose of the course is to provide students an introduction to generalized linear mixed models. The course will include a review of linear models and linear mixed models. In the course we will examine the univariate generalized linear models, such as the logistic, multivariate generalized linear models, such as the threshold and nonlinear regression, and generalized linear mixed models. Techniques to be explored include maximum likelihood, penalized quasi-likelihood, and Markov chain Monte Carlo. PROC IML will be used for examining the underlying mechanics of the estimation procedures.
