Vignette on using Julia MixedModels from R
Hello Rolf, You can highlight all text (Ctrl/Cmd + A) and then right click and choose print. It should then give you the entire highlighted content - I?m on Chrome and if I just right click and print I get the first page only, but highlighting beforehand gives all the content. You might need to play with scaling before printing. Best, Gabriela

Many users experience long execution times and convergence warnings when trying to fit complex linear mixed-effects models with lmer. I have, in the past, shown that such models can be fit using the MixedModels ( https://github.com/dmbates/MixedModels.jl) package for Julia ( https://julialang.org) and that the data can be pulled from an R representation using either the RCall ( https://github.com/JuliaInterop/RCall.jl) or RData ( https://github.com/JuliaData/RData.jl). Recently the JuliaCall package for R ( https://github.com/Non-Contradiction/JuliaCall) has become available on CRAN. I have a short note at http://rpubs.com/dmbates/377897 on how to use that package to fit models using MixedModels from R.
This is of considerable interest to me since I am involved in some consulting work (about which I have annoyed the r-sig-mixed-models list on previous occasions!) which involves mixed models and I have experienced the problems referred to in the opening line of your message. So I had a look at http://rpubs.com/dmbates/377897 just now, and it looks promising. I have however a possibly naive or misguided question: How do I get a printed copy of the vignette? I tried saving or printing the page that showed up in my browser (Firefox; GoogleChrome) in various ways. The result always seems to get truncated at a single page, with the bulk of the document omitted. (The document is also somewhat messed up in other ways.) Is there a simple way of saving a copy of the vignette in such a way that I can print off a hard copy? I suppose I am simply demonstrating my ignorance and showing that I am out of the loop when it comes to dealing with Rpubs and Rmarkdown documents, but that's the way it is. Thanks for any tips and advice. cheers, Rolf -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
