MCMC Methods for Multi-Response Generalized Linear Mixed Models: The MCMCglmm R Package

Generalized linear mixed models provide a flexible framework for modeling a range of data, although with non-Gaussian response variables the likelihood cannot be obtained in closed form. Markov chain Monte Carlo methods solve this problem by sampling from a series of simpler conditional distribution...
