1.There has been rapid development in tools for multivariate analysis based on fully specified statistical models or “joint models”. One approach attracting a lot of attention is generalized linear latent variable models (GLLVMs). However, software for fitting these models is typically slow and not practical for large datsets.
2.The R package gllvm offers relatively fast methods to fit GLLVMs via maximum likelihood, along with tools for model checking, visualization and inference.
3.The main advantage of the package over other implementations is speed e.g. being two orders of magnitude faster, and capable of handling thousands of response variables. These advances come from using variational approximations to simplify the likelihood expression to be maximised, automatic differentiation software for model‐fitting (via the TMB package), and careful choice of initial values for parameters.
4.Examples are used to illustrate the main features and functionality of the package, such as constrained or unconstrained ordination, including functional traits in “fourth corner” models, and (if the number of environmental coefficients is not large) make inferences about environmental associations.

Analyzing environmental‐trait interactions in ecological communities with fourth‐corner latent variable models
Niku, Jenni; Hui, Francis K. C.; Taskinen, Sara; Warton, David I. (John Wiley & Sons, 2021)In ecological community studies it is often of interest to study the effect of species related trait variables on abundances or presence-absences. Specifically, the interest may lay in the interactions between environmental ... -
Efficient estimation of generalized linear latent variable models
Niku, Jenni; Brooks, Wesley; Herliansyah, Riki; Hui, Francis K. C.; Taskinen, Sara; Warton, David I. (Public Library of Science, 2019)Generalized linear latent variable models (GLLVM) are popular tools for modeling multivariate, correlated responses. Such data are often encountered, for instance, in ecological studies, where presence-absences, counts, ... -
Variational Approximations for Generalized Linear Latent Variable Models
Hui, Francis K. C.; Warton, David I.; Ormerod, John T.; Haapaniemi, Viivi; Taskinen, Sara (American Statistical Association, 2017)Generalized linear latent variable models (GLLVMs) are a powerful class of models for understanding the relationships among multiple, correlated responses. Estimation, however, presents a major challenge, as the marginal ... -
Fitting Generalized Linear Latent Variable Models using the method of Extended Variational Approximation
Korhonen, Pekka (2020)Yhteisöekologian alalla tutkijat ovat usein kiinnostuneita yhden tai useamman kasvi- tai eläinlajin välisistä esiintyvyyssuhteista eri mittauspaikoilla tai ekosysteemeissä. Tämänkaltaiset tutkimuskysymykset johtavat ... -
