similar to: Install package of "BRugs"?

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, 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

Greetings: I'm going to encourage some students to try Bayesian ideas for hierarchical models. I want to run the WinBUGS and R examples in Tony Lancaster's An Introduction to Modern Bayesian Econometrics. That features MS Windows and "bugs" from R2WinBUGS. Today, I want to ask how people are doing this in Linux? I have found a plethora of possibilities, some of which are not

Hi, I'm running wine-1.0.1, OpenBUGS 3.0.3, R 2.9.0, and R2WinBUGS on a Redhat Enterprise Linux machine. Following various peoples' suggestions... This works perfectly (yay!): wine Z:/opt/OpenBUGS/winbugs.exe Within R, however, I get this: (setup the example from ?bugs, then....) R> schools.sim <- bugs(data, inits, parameters, model.file, n.chains=3,

Hi All, I am trying to figure out how to use R-Coda with the output from OpenBugs. I have installed and loaded the packages BRugs and R2WinBUGS. I have successfully run a simple Bayes model in WinBUGS using R2WinBUGS' "bugs" and have used "read.bugs" to build the coda object. I can successfully switch to OpenBugs and run the same model and get the basic summary

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. When I open and R and run the

Hi all, I've managed to get JAGS working on my Ubuntu Hardy Linux with a 32-bit computer and AMD processors using R 2.8.1. JAGS is great. I've read that JAGS is the fastest, but that hasn't been my experience. At any rate, I have more experience with WinBUGS under Windows and would like a version of that working as well. It seems like I've read a lot on the subject and tried a

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

Hi all, There seems a problem when I was installing this package. This question has been frequently asked but I didn't find any clue to solve it from previous answers and comments. And please forgive me if my question has been really answered before! My system is windows xp and R is 2.7x, when I hit in R install.packages("BRugs") the following warnings are output: Warning in

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, 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

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 I need to define complex likelihoods in BRUGS-> mixed multinomial probit & random coefficient tobit for panel data can I use the likelihood that i`ve written in R in the BRUGS model? if not, how can I deal with complex likelihoods in BRUGS, there is no integrate function in BRUGS? is there any possibility to this without writing my own sampler in R? Thanx, Johannes

I have an array from an mcmc simulation and I'd like to try and use the monitor function in R2WinBUGS. The R2WinBUGS package is in the search path and when I try help(monitor) the help page appears for the function. But, when I try and use it the following happens: > monitor(sims) Error: couldn't find function "monitor" I've searched the archives but have not seen any

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
