ABSTRACT
This paper yields with the Maximum likelihood estimation using the EM algorithm. This algorithm is very used to solve nonlinear equations with missing data. We estimated the linear mixed model parameters and those of the variance-covariance matrix. The considered structure of this matrix is not necessarily linear.
Keywords: Algorithm EM; Maximum likelihood; Mixed linear model.
