The Annals of Applied Statistics, Vol. 11, No. 4 (December 2017), pp. 2027-2051 (25 pages) Linear mixed models (LMMs) are among the most commonly used tools for genetic association studies. However, ...
Recently, analysis of variance (ANOVA) random effects models have been applied to data sets consisting of repeated measurements of pollutants within factories in order to identify determinants of ...
Linear models used for estimation of variance components are generally formulated under the assumption of independent errors. Herein we consider a two-way (mixed) model with errors assumed to follow a ...
Models to estimate heritability (twin or SNP h2) are typically linear models that can be seen as extensions of the simple linear model between two variables, from which one estimates a correlation.
