HIGHLIGHTS
- who: EDPSciences from the Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit**, University of New England have published the research work: u201cg06113u201d u2014 2007 / 12 12 u2014 10:37 u2014 page 3 u2014 #1, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The PX-EM algorithm is a useful, additional u2018weapon` in our armoury for REML estimation of variance components.
SUMMARY
Restricted maximum_likelihood (REML) is one of the preferred methods for estimation of genetic parameters in animal breeding applications. The resulting estimates of covariance matrices then have a factor-analytic structure e_g_[15] or, assuming specific variances . . .
