[R] Help to understand an Error using summary to an mcmc object
Hi, I used the MCMCirtKd function of MCMCpack: posterior2 <- MCMCirtKd(data, dimensions = 2, + burnin = 5000, mcmc = 50000, thin = 10, + verbose = 10000, B0 = .25, store.item = TRUE, item.constraints = beta.constraints) And after apply the comand summary() I got some erros and warnings that I could not understand: summary.posterior2 <- summary(posterior2) Error: NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: Warning messages: 1: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 2: step size truncated due to divergence Error: NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: There were 42 warnings (use warnings() to see them) Error: NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: There were 35 warnings (use warnings() to see them) Error in glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, : inner loop 1; cannot correct step size In addition: There were 49 warnings (use warnings() to see them) Error: NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: Warning messages: 1: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 2: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 3: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 4: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 5: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 6: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 7: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 8: step size truncated due to divergence Error: NA/NaN/Inf in foreign function call (arg 1) In addition: There were 29 warnings (use warnings() to see them) Thanks for any comment.
