Best Linear Unbiased Prediction of Breeding Values Not in the Model for Records
Abstract Methods for computing best linear unbiased predictions of random variables (breeding values or sire values) not appearing in the model for records are presented. One method involves taking linear functions of best linear unbiased predictions of variables appearing in the model for records.

An alternative derivation method of mixed model equations from best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) and restricted BLUP of breeding values not using maximum likelihood. [PDF]
Two mixed model equations (MME) for best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) of breeding values and for restricted BLUP of breeding values were derived by maximum likelihood from the joint normal probability distribution of the observations and breeding ...

Best Linear Unbiased Prediction of Latent Means in Three-level Data
In multilevel modeling decomposing variables into between and within components is often required in the analysis. This decomposition should not ignore the possible unreliability of an observed group mean (i.e. arithmetic mean) that is due to small cluster sizes and can lead to substantially biased estimates.

Best Linear Unbiased Prediction for Multifidelity Computer Experiments [PDF]
Recently it becomes a growing trend to study complex systems which contain multiple computer codes with different levels of accuracy, and a number of hierarchical Gaussian process models are proposed to handle such multiple-fidelity codes. This paper derives the best linear unbiased prediction for three popular classes of multiple-level Gaussian ...

Best linear unbiased prediction for linear combinations in general mixed linear models [PDF]
AbstractThe general mixed linear model can be written as y=Xβ+Zu+e. In this paper, we mainly deal with two problems. Firstly, the problem of predicting a general linear combination of fixed effects and realized values of random effects in a general mixed linear model is considered and an explicit representation of the best linear unbiased predictor ...
