Better model statistics for linear mixed effects models #177

Open mortonjt opened 7 years ago

mortonjt commented 7 years ago

Right now, the main statistic being reported by statsmodels is the loglikelihood statistic

It would be great if we could support other meaningful model statistics (i.e. R^2)

Would also be really cool if we could take advantage of the existing work done with multivariate linear mixed effects models

@serenejiang do you have any thoughts on this?
