Average Information REML: An Efficient Algorithm for Variance Parameter Estimation in Linear Mixed Models
Abstract
A strategy of using an average information matrix is shown to be computationally convenient and efficient for estimating variance components by restricted maximum likelihood (REML) in the mixed linear model. Three applications are described. The motivation for the algorithm was the estimation of variance components in the analysis of wheat variety means from 1,071 experiments representing 10 years and 60 locations in New South Wales. We also apply the algorithm to the analysis of designed experiments by incomplete block analysis and spatial analysis of field experiments.

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.
