Regression model

Robust Linear Mixed-Effects Model

The robust mixed model is a linear mixed-effects model for panel and repeated-measures data that tolerates outliers and heavy-tailed errors. It replaces the usual likelihood with bounded-influence estimating equations, building on the robust restricted maximum likelihood of Richardson and Welsh (1995) and the robustlmm implementation of Koller (2016).
