Dear friends - I'm on winXP, R 2.71 - I have with some help dveloped this multivariate normal model, which gives very plausible results in WinBUGS even without any initial values specified. However, when I then try to run the same model via the bugs function in R2WinBUGS with inits specified as inits=NULL the program stops in a dead end. So I have tried to make inits for the bugs function as shown below. But then WinBUGS come to a halt while these inits are being handled so they are seemingly wrong. This is a bit annoying and I would like to know how I managed to corrupt the inits. This is sent both to WinBUGS and R with hope and some anxiety. Best wishes Troels cat(" model { for (i in 1:126) { dep[i] ~ dnorm(mu.dep[i],tau.dep) mu.dep[i] <- alpha[ID[i]]*NAK.cor[i]+beta[ID[i]]*TBW.cor[i] fit[i] <- mu.dep[i]+CONST[i] } tau.dep <- pow(sigma_dep,-2) sigma_dep ~ dunif(0,100) for (j in 1:16) { alpha[lev[j]] <- AB[lev[j],1] beta[lev[j]] <- AB[lev[j],2] AB[lev[j],1:2] ~ dmnorm(AB.hat[lev[j],],tau.AB[,])I(lower[], upper[]) AB.hat[lev[j],1] <- mu.alpha AB.hat[lev[j],2] <- mu.beta } lower[1] <- 0 lower[2] <- -100 upper[1] <- 100 upper[2] <- 0 mu.alpha ~ dnorm(0,0.0001) mu.beta ~ dnorm(0,0.0001) tau.AB[1:2,1:2] <- inverse(sigma.AB[,]) sigma.AB[1,1] <- pow(sigma.alpha,2) sigma.alpha ~ dunif(0,100) sigma.AB[2,2] <- pow(sigma.beta,2) sigma.beta ~ dunif(0,100) sigma.AB[1,2] <- rho*sigma.alpha*sigma.beta sigma.AB[2,1] <- sigma.AB[1,2] rho ~ dunif(-1,1) }", file="ml3_pig.bug") pigs3.inits <- function () { list (AB=array(c(runif(16,0,10),runif(16,-30,0)),c(16,2)), mu.alpha=runif(1,0,10), mu.beta=runif(1,-30,0), sigma.dep=runif(1), sigma.alpha=runif(1), sigma.beta=runif(1), rho=runif(1)) } pigs.parameters <- c ("mu.alpha", "mu.beta", "sigma_dep","alpha","beta", "fit","deviance","rho") pigs3 <- bugs (ml_pig.data, debug=TRUE,inits=pigs3.inits, pigs.parameters, "ml3_pig.bug", n.iter=2000,n.chains=3, bugs.directory = bugs.directory) -- Troels Ring - - Department of nephrology - - Aalborg Hospital 9100 Aalborg, Denmark - - +45 99326629 - - tring at gvdnet.dk
