Motivation | What BLMM Approximates | Conceptual Formulation | Implemented Profiled Formulation | The response-dependent part of the draw-specific criterion is the profiledweighted residual sum of squares[\mathrm{PWRSS}_s(\theta_s) | More precisely, the anchor fit targets the average of the per-draw profiledREML criteria:[\bar{\ell}(\phi) | Conditional on (\phi_s), BLMM then solves the fixed effects exactly bygeneralized least squares:[\hat{\beta}_s | Assumptions and Scope | Validation Strategy | Worked Example | Example Comparison: lme4 Versus blmm | Runtime Scaling
