Regularization for Generalized Additive Mixed Models by Likelihood-Based Boosting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
With the emergence of semi- and nonparametric regression the generalized linear mixed model has been expanded to account for additive predictors. In the present paper an approach to variable selection is proposed that works for generalized additive mixed

Generalized linear mixed models can detect unimodal species-environment relationships [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
Niche theory predicts that species occurrence and abundance show non-linear, unimodal relationships with respect to environmental gradients. Unimodal models, such as the Gaussian (logistic) model, are however more difficult to fit to data than linear ...

A Generalized Linear Mixed Model Approach to Assess Emerald Ash Borer Diffusion

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
The Asian Emerald Ash Borer beetle (EAB, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) can cause damage to all species of Ash trees (Fraxinus), and rampant, unchecked infestations of this insect can cause significant damage to forests. It is thus critical to assess and

EcoCountHelper: an R package and analytical pipeline for the analysis of ecological count data using GLMMs, and a case study of bats in Grand Teton National Park [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Here we detail the use of an R package, ‘EcoCountHelper’, and an associated analytical pipeline aimed at making generalized linear mixed-effects model (GLMM)-based analysis of ecological count data more accessible.

A vine copula mixed effect model for trivariate meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies accounting for disease prevalence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A bivariate copula mixed model has been recently proposed to synthesize diagnostic test accuracy studies and it has been shown that it is superior to the standard generalized linear mixed model in this context.

Comparison of linear mixed effects model and generalized model of the tree height-diameter relationship

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2015
Models of height curves generated using a linear mixed effects model and generalized model were compared. Both tested models were also compared with local models of height curves, which were fitted using a nonlinear regression.

Using linear mixed model and dummy variable model approaches to construct compatible single-tree biomass equations at different scales - A case study for Masson pine in Southern China

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2012
The estimation of forest biomass is important for practical issues and scientific purposes in forestry. The estimation of forest biomass on a large-scale level would be merely possible with the application of generalized single-tree biomass models.
