| Language : | French language |
|
| Course contents : | This course provides applications of the mixed models methodology. Models with correlations will be studied: animal models (correlation between factors levels), repeated measurements models (correlation between residuals), multi-trait models (correlation between traits). Also, a framework will be provided to extend these models to more general situations (generalized mixed models) such as polychotomous data analyses. |
|
| Course objective : | The main goals of this course are:
- to show numerous examples applying mixed models in practical situations
- to show more generally how usefull these techniques can be
- to explore how these models can be extended to more general situations (generalized mixed linear models)
- to illustrate the models with practical applications
|
|
| Prerequisites : | Linear models theory |
|
| Workshops : | Some datasets will be provided to the students, and software allowing such models will be demonstrated. |
|
| Organization : | Three hours lectures will be given, with slides support and solved exercises.
Practical sessions will take 2h30 in front of a computer, with datasets provided to the students. |
|
| Written notes : | Reference books, and some written material will be provided to the students. |
|
| Assessment : | The evaluation will consist in problems solving on a computer. |
