Using random effects models in prediction problems

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

KUEHNEL, and ALI NASIRI AMINI In this post, we give a brief introduction to random effects models, and discuss some of their uses. Through simulation we illustrate issues with model fitting techniques that depend on matrix factorization. Random effects models are a useful tool for both exploratory analyses and prediction problems.
