Advanced Linear Models II

3 units

Generalized linear models including logistic and Poisson regression (hetrogeneous vairance structure, quasi-likelihood), linear mixed-effects models (estimation of variance components, maximum likelihood estimation, restricted maximum likelihood, generalized estimating equations), generalized linear mixed-effects models for discrete data, models for longitudinal data, and optional multivariate models as time permits. The computer software R will be used for examples and homework problems. Implementation in SAS will be mentioned for several specialized models.
