similar to: problem with BRugs

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

Hi. I am new here, and I am writing this Winbugs code with BRugs. n=length(bi.bmi) Lagegp=13 Lgen=2 Lrace=5 Lstra=15 Lpsu=2 #model gen x race bi.bmi.model=function(){ # likelihood for (i in 1:n){ bi.bmi[i]~ dbern(p[i]) logit(p[i])<- a0 + a1[agegp[i]]+a2[gen[i]]+a3[race[i]] + a12[agegp[i], gen[i]] + gam[stra[i]]+ u[psu[i],stra[i]] } # constraints for a1, a2, a3, a12 a1[1]<-0.0

Hi, this is the first announcement of a *developer version* of the R package BRugs, which is based on OpenBUGS 2.1.0. OpenBUGS 2.1.0 has been released earlier this week (http://mathstat.helsinki.fi/openbugs/). BRugs contains a complete OpenBUGS installation as well as R code to access OpenBUGS functionality from R. Simply install the package, load it and say ?BRugs and ?BRugsFit

Hi, When I used BRugs (Version 0.8.0), I found a bug about the findOpenBUGS way using "OpenBUGS_PATH". I don't know how to contact the developer, so I think someone here may help me. The issue is: I want to use OpenBUGS/BRugs in a portable way in windows, so I set the environment variable "OpenBUGS_PATH" to tell BRugs the path to OpenBugs. But the R library BRugs is still

I installed XCode, XQuartz and OpenBUGS on my Mac using WINE. When I tried to test my installation I received the following error. If correct, BRugs does not exist for R 2.15.1. Is there a means to get arrange this problem? Thanks Paul The following code is an example from R Help bugs: > schools.sim <- bugs(data, inits, + parameters, model.file, n.chains=3, + n.iter=1000, +

Hello. In this post: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp10/2010-March/233815.html Uwe Ligges suggests using BRugs rather than R2WinBUGS under windows. He also notes that it is not in the main CRAN repository, but it is in "extras" which is a default repository under windows. I have OpenBUGS 3.1.0 (the latest that has a native Linux version which is no longer called linBUGS)

Hi there, I installed the latest OpenBUGS version (3.0.3) in program files folder but it seems that bugs use its own version of OpenBUGS. here is part of the message bugs returns .....

Dear all, I just wrote a script to have each of my three mcmc chins running on a different computer core to improve computation speed. To do it I use the function sfLapply from the package snowfall. Before using parallell computation, I did my diagnostic analyses just after the model updating, but now I have to save the coda before. Using the CODA package, it is possible to load the outputs in a

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 ~

Respected Sir/Madam, I am a research scholar of Department of Statistics, University Of Calcutta. I had downloaded the latest version of "BRugs", and installed it in R 2.15.1 both in 32 and 64 bits with the help of openBUGS 3.2.2. My problem is that one of the programmes which requires the package "BRugs" is giving me an error given below:

To All, I am using the BRugs package. In running the meta file BRugsFit() with a syntactically correct model .txt file, I see the message: Error in FUN(X[[1]], ...) : .C(..): 'type' must be "real" for this format I haven't found information on this kind of error either here or on the OpenBUGS/WinBUGS/BRugs bulletin boards.

Hi, I have a strange behaviour of openBUGS and WinBUGS when I start them from R. Version: R: 2.10.1 openBUGS: 3.07 WinBUGS: 1.43 R2WinBUGS: 2.1-16 BRugs: 0.5-3 I have a model and data without initial start values. If I use the stand alone versions of openBUGS and WinBUGS I don't have any problems and I get what I want. If I use function bugs() from R2WinBUGS- resp. BRugs-Library then

Hi, Is there anyone know if BUGS language allows the combination of variables as response such as Y[i] <- a*X1[i]+b*X2[i] Y[i] ~ dnorm(c,d) It seems doesn't work in my model.

I am have installed R on Windows 7 machine. R got installed in the directory C:\Program Files\R\R-2.12.0. Then I installed the package BRugs using the install.packages command. I did not get an option during the installation as to what directory I wanted BRugs installed in. It ended up in C:\myusername\Documents as C:\myusername\Documents\R\win-library\2.12\BRugs.
