Hi,
I use the following line to fit a generalized linear mixed effect model on my data:
glme = fitglme(tbl, 'error ~ 1 + var1*var2 + (1+ var1*var2 | subject)', ...
'Distribution','Binomial','Link','logit','FitMethod','Laplace',...
'DummyVarCoding','effects')
Here is the results:
glme =
Generalized linear mixed-effects model fit by ML
Model information:
Number of observations 125388
Fixed effects coefficients 4
Random effects coefficients 72
Covariance parameters 10
Distribution Binomial
Link Logit
FitMethod Laplace
Formula:
error ~ 1 + va1*var2 + (1 + var1*var2 | subject)
Model fit statistics:

Fixed effects coefficients (95% CIs):

Random effects covariance parameters:

{'var1' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} 0.38145
{'var2' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} -0.43246
{'var1:var2' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} 0.25889
{'var1' } {'var1' } {'std' } 0.019984
{'var2' } {'var1' } {'corr'} -0.15137
{'var1:var2' } {'var1' } {'corr'} 0.63492
{'var2' } {'var2' } {'std' } 0.052801
{'var1:var2' } {'var2' } {'corr'} 0.59288
{'var1:var2' } {'var1:var2' } {'std' } 0.0013593
Group: Error
Name Estimate
{'sqrt(Dispersion)'} 1
Then I use the following to get 95% confidence intervals for random effects:
[psi,dispersion,stats] = covarianceParameters(glme);
When I look at the confidence intervals, I have some NaN values:
stats{1}
ans =
Covariance Type: FullCholesky
Group Name1 Name2 Type Estimate Lower Upper
subject {'(Intercept)'} {'(Intercept)'} {'std' } 1.0232 0.74346 1.4083
subject {'var1' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} 0.38145 NaN NaN
subject {'var2' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} -0.43246 -0.44369 -0.42108
subject {'var1:var2' } {'(Intercept)'} {'corr'} 0.25889 0.10277 0.40256
subject {'var1' } {'var1' } {'std' } 0.019984 0.013642 0.029275
subject {'var2' } {'var1' } {'corr'} -0.15137 NaN NaN
subject {'var1:var2' } {'var1' } {'corr'} 0.63492 0.52744 0.72239
subject {'var2' } {'var2' } {'std' } 0.052801 0.036326 0.076748
subject {'var1:var2' } {'var2' } {'corr'} 0.59288 NaN NaN
subject {'var1:var2' } {'var1:var2' } {'std' } 0.0013593 0.00073738 0.0025057
Any idea on why I get NaN values for some of the 'corr' parameters?
Thank you.

I feel this happens often when a model is too complex for the number of supplied datapoints, i.e. it happens because there's not enough data to produce those estimates. I often end up not including interaction effects in the random effects for that reason.
