The hierarchical generalized linear model (HGLM) is presented as an explicit, two-level formulation of a multilevel item response model. In this paper, it is shown that the HGLM is equivalent to the ...

Multilevel (hierarchical) modeling is a generalization of linear and generalized linear modeling in which regression coefficients are themselves given a model, whose parameters are also estimated from ...

We adapt a semi-Bayesian hierarchical modeling framework to jointly characterize the space–time variability of seasonal precipitation totals and precipitation extremes across the Northern Great Plains ...
