This package defines linear mixed models (LinearMixedModel) and generalized linear mixed models (GeneralizedLinearMixedModel). Users can use the abstraction for statistical model API to build, fit (fit/fit!), and query the fitted models.
A mixed-effects model is a statistical model for a response variable as a function of one or more covariates.
For a categorical covariate the coefficients associated with the levels of the covariate are sometimes called effects, as in "the effect of using Treatment 1 versus the placebo".
If the potential levels of the covariate are fixed and reproducible, e.g. the levels for Sex could be "F" and "M", they are modeled with fixed-effects parameters.
If the levels constitute a sample from a population, e.g. the Subject or the Item at a particular observation, they are modeled as random effects.
A mixed-effects model contains both fixed-effects and random-effects terms.
With fixed-effects it is the coefficients themselves or combinations of coefficients that are of interest. For random effects it is the variability of the effects over the population that is of interest.
In this package random effects are modeled as independent samples from a multivariate Gaussian distribution of the form 𝓑 ~ 𝓝(0, 𝚺). For the response vector, 𝐲, only the mean of conditional distribution, 𝓨|𝓑 = 𝐛 depends on 𝐛 and it does so through a linear predictor expression, 𝛈 = 𝐗𝛃 + 𝐙𝐛, where 𝛃 is the fixed-effects coefficient vector and 𝐗 and 𝐙 are model matrices of the appropriate sizes,
In a LinearMixedModel the conditional mean, 𝛍 = 𝔼[𝓨|𝓑 = 𝐛], is the linear predictor, 𝛈, and the conditional distribution is multivariate Gaussian, (𝓨|𝓑 = 𝐛) ~ 𝓝(𝛍, σ²𝐈).
In a GeneralizedLinearMixedModel, the conditional mean, 𝔼[𝓨|𝓑 = 𝐛], is related to the linear predictor via a link function.
Typical distribution forms are Bernoulli for binary data or Poisson for count data.

Note that previous releases still support older Julia versions.
Version 5.0
Version 5.0.0 contains some user-visible changes and many changes in the underlying code.
Please see NEWS for a complete overview, but a few key points are:
- Options related to multithreading in the bootstrap have been completely removed.
- Model fitting now uses unconstrained optimization, with a post-fit canonicalization step so that the diagonal elements of the lower Cholesky factor are non-negative. Relatedly, support for constrained optimization has been completely removed and the lowerbd field of OptSummary dropped.
- The default optimizer has changed to use NLopt's implementation of NEWUOA. Further changes to the default optimizer are considered non-breaking.
- The profile function now respects backend and optimizer settings.
- The deprecated hide_progress keyword argument has been removed in favor of the shorter and affirmative progress.
- A fitlog is always kept and stored as a Tables.jl-compatible column table.
