OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Variance components and residual likelihood
The marginal likelihood based on residuals in a linear model is called the residual likelihood, sometimes abbreviated to REML. I will discuss the use of REML in a number of applications from animal behaviour, growth curves, agricultural field studies and environmental monitoring. All of these applications involve designs having several variance components, each associated with an independent source of variation such as temporal, spatial or other factors.
