When to apply which analysis?
In my study, I need to apply GLMM or GEE. Some days back I was pretty much sure about using GLMM, but some of my friends suggested me to use General Estimation Equations (GEE). I tried looking on the internet for the same and failed miserably. So, please help me in differentiating between them and tell me what are the conditions in which each analysis is used.

GEE: In this type of analysis, you can stipulate several types of within-group correlation, i.e., unstructured, autoregressive, exchangeable or compound-symmetry, stationary, auto-correlation, ante-dependence, and some other correlation structures.Â
I would suggest you use GLMM in your study.Â

Lindsey, J. K. and P. Lambert (1998). On the appropriateness of marginal models for repeated measurements in clinical trials. Statistics in Medicine 17, 447–469.
You must read from the book, as it has a detailed explanation of the difference between the two.
