Derivative free methods in covariance components estimation
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe downhill simplex (DS), Powell's (PO), and Rosenbrock's (RO) algorithm were optimized and applied to estimation of dispersion parameters. The optimization is independent of the log-likelihood function and thus, from the model. The model can accommodate two additive genetic effects and genetic groups for unknown ancestors.
