An important part of the marginal maximum likelihood method described previously is the computation of the integral over the random effects. The default method in PROC NLMIXED for computing this ...

Approximation theory and asymptotic methods form a foundational framework that bridges classical ideas with modern numerical analysis, enabling researchers to obtain practical, near‐optimal solutions ...

Covers asymptotic evaluation of integrals (stationary phase and steepest descent), perturbation methods (regular and singular methods, and inner and outer expansions), multiple scale methods, and ...
