mermboost: Gradient Boosting for Generalized Additive Mixed Models

Provides a novel framework to estimate mixed models via gradient boosting. The implemented functions are based on 'mboost' and 'lme4'. Hence, the family range is predetermined by 'lme4'. A correction mechanism for cluster-constant covariates is implemented as well as an estimation of random effects' covariance.
