The function first discards individuals with one or more missing phenotypes or missing covariates. It then infers variance components, Vg and Ve. Both Vg and Ve are d by d covariance matrices. It uses an expectation maximization algorithm, as implemented in the 'gemma2' R package. 'gemma2' R package is an R implementation of the GEMMA algorithm for multivariate variance component estimation (Zhou & Stephens 2014 Nature methods). Note that variance components are fitted on a model that uses the d-variate phenotype but contains no genetic information. This model does, however, use the specified covariates (after dropping dependent columns in the covariates matrix). These inferred covariance matrices, \hat{Vg} and \hat{Ve}, are then used in subsequent model fitting via generalized least squares. Generalized least squares model fitting is applied to every marker on every chromosome. For a single marker, we fit the model:
vec(Y) = Xvec(B) + vec(G) + vec(E)
where
G \sim MN(0, K, \hat{Vg})
and
E \sim MN(0, I, \hat{Ve})
where MN denotes the matrix-variate normal distribution with three parameters: mean matrix, covariance among rows, and covariance among columns. vec denotes the vectorization operation, ie, stacking by columns. K is a kinship matrix, typically calculated by leave-one-chromosome-out methods. Y is the n by d phenotypes matrix. X is a block-diagonal nd by fd matrix consisting of d blocks each of dimension n by f. Each n by f block (on the diagonal) contains a matrix of founder allele probabilities for the n subjects at a single marker. The off-diagonal blocks have only zero entries. The log-likelihood is returned for each model. The outputted object is a tibble with d + 1 columns. The first d columns specify the markers used in the corresponding model fit, while the last column specifies the log-likelihood value at that d-tuple of markers.
