  1. Mathematics Colloquium“Nelder Memorial Lecture” Professor Peter McCullaghFRS (University of Chicago)on: “Some issues connected with likelihood and REML” Thursday, March 8th 2012, 5-6pm LT 308 Computing Department, Huxley Building Abstract: Residual likelihood and residual maximum likelihood estimationhave been found to be very useful for variance-components estimation in linear models, particularly for models having more than one variance component.The talk is concerned with marginal likelihood in general and with REML for the computation of likelihood-ratio statistics.Can REML be used for testing the significance of a treatment effect?Can REML be combined with the Box-Cox technique for testingthe appropriateness of various transformations? Reception afterwards in the Huxley Common Room , Level 5, Huxley Building.
