Thread Subject: nonlinear mixed effect model

Does matlab provide a function similar to NLME(Nonlinear
Mixed Effect) model available in R or S-Plus?

If not, I will have to switch back and forth between Matlab
and R.

Thanks

Pete,
I am looking for an nlme solution for matlab as well, but
have not found yet found one. Just wondering if you came
across something -- and if so, if you would be kind enough
to share what you've found!

Cheers,
Lee

Non-linear mixed effects regression is available now in the
prerelease for R2008b of the Stastitics Toolbox.

what's the function name?

Hi all,

Is there a linear mixed-effect model as well? And what is the function name? Has it been implemented in previous releases (before R2008b)?

Googling this matter didn't prove to be useful...

Thanks!

Koen, there isn't one in the Statistics Toolbox. In the absence of that, you
could use nlmefit to fit your linear model. Another option is to use anovan,
though that function is focused on anova and might not give all the
information you'd expect if you're thinking about this as a regression
problem.
