predict.SMN

Predicted values are obtained through conditional expectation. For details, see Schumacher, Lachos, and Matos (2021).

models

It fits scale mixture of skew-normal linear mixed models using either an expectation–maximization (EM) type algorithm or its accelerated version (Damped Anderson Acceleration with Epsilon Monotonicity, DAAREM), including some possibilities for modeling the within-subject dependence <doi:10.18637/jss.v115.i07>.
