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

Hi, I am trying to do run the following model saved in "C:/bugs/sus.bug" model { for (i in 1:n){ y[i] ~ dpois(lamdba[i]) log(lambda[i]) <- mu+bmale[male[i]]+bschn[schn[i]]+epsilon[i] # epsilon[i] ~ dnorm(0,tau.epsilon) } mu ~ dnorm(0,.0001) bmale ~ dnorm(0,.0001) tau.epsilon <- pow(sigma.epsilon, -2) sigma.epsilon ~ dunif(0,100) for (j in

Hello, I have problem running WinBUGS from R. The following example works in WinBUGS but it does not work in R through package R2WinBUGS. Does anyone know what the problem is? x <- c(0.2, 1.1, 1, 2.2, 2.5, 2.9, 2.9, 3.6, 3.8, 0.6, 1, 2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.2, 3.9, 3.5) y <- c(0.5, 1.3, 0.1, 0.7, -0.4, 0.5, -0.9, -0.3, -0.3, 0.6, 0.4, 0.9, -0.1, -0.4, -0.5, -0.2, 0.3, -1.5) eco <- c(1, 3,

Hi all, Does anyone have an example of an autoregressive (AR) time-series model specified as a state space model in R? That is, I want to go beyond the locally linear (constant) model, and fit the following Gaussian AR state process model: Xt = a + (1+b)*Xt-1 + epsilon ,where the model for the observation process is Yt = Xt + tau I have information of the tau's (observation variance)

I'm trying to call BUGS from R. But it's not working. R freezes up and BUGS gives me a strange output in the log. Just to know, BUGS is registered. The modified date on the keys file is today (Dec. 9th). It should be fully registered so that I can use it fully. And, the BUGS model is syntactically correct. Any suggestions would be very helpful. Here is my BUGS model: model {

Hi R users, I am trying to call openbugs from R.

Hi: I am trying to run your SCHOOLS example as following and I get an error message stated that : Error: could not find function "bugs" Would you please help me since I would like to run some WINBUG programs from your R by reading external data and I am new to R? Do I missing some function? Should I install some extra files? Thanks a lot in advance for your help!! > schools

Hi, I'm working on the codes below however every time I run them when they get to OpenBUGS I keep getting the error message: array index is greater than array upper bound for hab. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Suzie Codes: ungulate <- read.csv(file.choose ()) #ungulate ungulate <- as.matrix(ungulate);colnames(ungulate)<-NULL;rownames(ungulate)<-NULL

I'm back! I've just learned that, on a fully updated Fedora Core Linux5 sytem, the working solution to access Winbugs under wine via the R package "rbugs" no longer works. Here was my last post on this topic (with the formerly working solution) from January. http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/68497.html Currently, what happens is that WinBUGS starts up, but just

I'm new to bugs, so please bear with me. Can someone tell me if the following two models are doing the same thing? The reason I ask is that with the same data, the first (based on 4 separate coeffs a1--a4) takes about 50 secs, while the second (based on a vectorized form, a[]) takes about 300. The means are about the same, though R-hat's in the second version are quite a bit better.

i am having problem running my own data. yesterday it was working just fine. today it is not. this is the code i was using as an example to follow. this code ALSO worked just fine yesterday, and is no longer working at all. i suspect it is a problem with either my computer or the software, at this point. if THIS won't even run.... something is wrong. i can assure you this isn't

Is there a way to do hierarchical (bayesian) logistic regression in R, the way we do it in BUGS? For example in BUGS we can have this model: model {for(i in 1:N) { y[i] ~ dbin(p[i],n[i]) logit(p[i]) <- beta0+beta1*x1[i]+beta2*x2[i]+beta3*x3[i] } sd ~ dunif(0,10) tau <- pow(sd, -2) beta0 ~ dnorm(0,0.1) beta1 ~ dnorm(0,tau) beta2 ~ dnorm(0,tau) beta3 ~

I've run into persistent problems with OpenBUGS crashing when using BRugs .53 and .71, and am hoping someone has suggestions. There is obviously something unusual going on in my environment, but I'm at a loss as to where to begin to try to solve it. In a nutshell, what happens is that, as soon as I call "modelCheck()" in BRugs, it gets an error or crashes ... but only some of

Dear R-help, I'm using the R2WinBUGS package and getting an error message: Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file 'codaIndex.txt', reason 'No such file or directory' I'm using R 2.2.1 and WinBUGS 1.4.1 on a windows machine (XP). My R code and WinBUGS code is given below.

Dear R users: I was trying to fit a HMM with mixture of Gaussian into the dataset, and I tried to implement it by R2Winbugs. But I got the following errer. * Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : .C(..): 'type' must be "real" for this format* Does anybody know what's the problem? Does R2Winbugs accept some matrix as inits? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

Hello, I am running a GLMM using R2Bugs, but am getting the below error message. I am including the entire output, although the 2nd and 3rd lines seem to indicate the problem. Note that I do define N (it is an integer) and send it to a datalist (see the R commands and model below). Interestingly, when I put all of this into OpenBugs directly, the model runs. I do have reasons, however, that I
