Tiivistelmä

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.
