Maximum Likelihood Variance Components Estimation for Binary Data
Abstract
We consider a class of probit-normal models for binary data and describe ML and REML estimation of variance components for that class as well as best prediction for the realized values of the random effects. ML estimates are calculated using an EM algorithm; for complicated models EM includes a Gibbs step. The computations are illustrated through two examples.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
