Frank (or anyone else), can you offer any comments comparing runjags, R2jags, rjags ? I couldn't find any vignettes, nothing except a brief mention on Task Views.

Anyone used jags.parallel in latest version of R2jags? Ubuntu Oneiric, just ran updates in R to get latest R2jags package which supposedly has added jags.parallel command to send chains to multiple cores ... but when I submit, I get: test <- jags.parallel(d, inits, param, model.file="rats.bug", n.chains=3, n.iter=2000) Error: could not find function

There is a thread on this topic already: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp10/2010-August/250934.html I'm rather mystified by a similar problem and wondering whether I've overlooked something obvious. I'm running with latest versions of R and all packages, and latest version of JAGS running under Windows 7. Here's the problem. I have some source code. It's given below -

Hi, I'm trying to install rjags and R2jags with R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22) on Linux Mint 12 machine using software repository: deb http://cran.fhcrc.org/bin/linux/ubuntu oneiric/ jags seems to install OK, but rjags gives a weird error about not finding fprec symbol. Here is a history of the problem including several attempts to work around it. (Because of Ben Bolker's recent

Hi, I'm trying to generate a GLMM for Y following a negative binomial distribution. The first step I'm taking as a beginner in the use of R2Jags is to generate a GLM for Y following a Poisson distribution (I heard it's good in order to get used to the coding language), so here I am and here I face the first error message for which I can't find any mistake of spelling. Could you

May I request that Dirk's package for jags be added to the CRAN archives for Debian and Ubuntu? Installing the rjags package for R requires specific versions of jags to be present on the system. The current version of rjags requires jags version 2.2.0 or later but the version on the Ubuntu archives at Canonical (i.e. not the CRAN archives) is 2.1.0-2 I can always install Dirk's package

Hi All, I have a user who is receiving this error after running the following: library(rjags) library(R2jags) x = c(1.6907, 1.7242, 1.7552, 1.7842, 1.8113, 1.8369, 1.8610, 1.8839) n = c(59, 60, 62, 56, 63, 59, 62, 60) r = c(6, 13, 18, 28, 52, 53, 61, 60) N = 8 data=list("x","n","r","N") inits=function(){ list(alpha.star=0,beta=0) }

So, I'm submitting R 3.0.1 jobs on Ubuntu (13.04) using 'R CMD BATCH --no-save filename.R &' (have an alias set to subr='R CMD BATCH --no-save") and am having a problem of sometimes the process ending without the R commands contained in the batch file actually having finished running. We're running Bayesian models using R2jags jags.parallel and it ends during the

Ubuntu R users, Early this month, version 3.0 of JAGS was released on its Sourceforge page. Dirk Eddelbuettel and I quickly rolled up packages for Debian and Ubuntu, respectively. If you are an Ubuntu user who utilizes my Launchpad PPA for your R related .deb files, JAGS was updated automatically. The downside to this is that JAGS 3.0 is not compatible with the R package rjags, also found

I know this has been covered before but I have read all the posts on this subject but I still cannot resolve it. I tried to install rjags on a 64bit Fedora 17 and I got this error message Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rjags', details: call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) error: unable to load shared object '/usr/lib64/R/library/rjags/libs/rjags.so':

Dear all, I have a question regarding using JAGS and R. My problem is that every single time I want to call JAGS from R the latter crashes (i.e. it turns pale and the Windows tells me "R has stopped working". Strangely, if there is a mistake in my jags code, this will be reported without a crash. Only when the code is right and the model should start to run, R stops working. I already

Has anybody had issues running MCMC (either BUGS or JAGS) on data sets of this magnitude (ie 30k x 20-30). I've been trying to run a hierarchical random effects model on expression data but R completely stalls out on jobs run on 32bit R on our server (doesn't respond...then eventually crashes out with an exception fault). Would using 64bit R help with JAGS? (As far as I know there's

I define priors in jags within r using a gamma distribution. I would like to control the shape but I have problems. Any help will be usefull. From help of dgamma ___________________ The Gamma distribution with parameters shape = a and scale = s has density f(x)= 1/(s^a Gamma(a)) x^(a-1) e^-(x/s) and rate=1/scale From jags user manual ____________________ dgamma(r, mu) has a density of

It turns out that when I use GUI (file-change dir) to set the working directory, R will crash. If I use setwd() instead, the example runs well.

Hello, I can`t figure out how to include a text file for use in an example in the .Rd help files of an R package I am writing. I want the examples section of one help file to look like this: \examples{ # Load the JAGS model mod <- jags.model("model.txt") } The function jags.model tries to read in the file model.txt. So far every time I run R CMD check, I get an error message:

Hello. I am running a state space model (the example from Marc kery's Bayesian population analysis using WinBUGS ) The code runs fine for the examle as shown in the book. However I played around and changed the nodes monitored to the latent variable z I get the following error- even though it is monitored in the code: Initializing model

Hello, In WinBUGS 1.4 manual (http://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/bugs/winbugs/manual14.pdf), the gamma density is presented as dgamma(r,mu) where r and mu are the shape and rate parameters, respectively. In JAGS (rjags) manual version 1.0.2, May 9, 2008 (http://www-fis.iarc.fr/~martyn/software/jags/jags_user_manual.pdf), on page 26 the gamma density is presented as dgamma(mu,r) instead of dgamma(r,mu).

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

Hallo! I want to use the package bayesmix. Trying the examples I had no success. The reason is, I think: > haveJAGS() [1] FALSE Have read of JAGS executable (I could not find JAGS.exe in my R directory). What is JAGS? Where can I find or download it? Karl

Hi, all: I met "Non-conforming parameters for function %*%" problem, when I run the Jags model in R. My model is like this: model{ for(i in 1:n){ for(j in 1:t[i]){ et[i,j]<-yt[i,j]-beta0+betax*xt[i,j]+betat*t[i,j] } for(a in 1:t[i]){ for(b in 1:t[i]){ sigma[i,a,b]<-pow(rho0,abs(t[a]-t[b])) } } phi[i]<-
