similar to: compare posterior samples from R2OpenBugs and R function bugs{R2WinBUGS}

Hello ALL! I am running Linux, Fedora 15 64-bits, and R on it. I need to use WinBUGS and R2WinBUGS, but as far as I read, WinBUGS is closed project, to be continued with/as OpenBUGS. Thus, I have found R2OpenBUGS on OpenBUGS Contributed Code (http://openbugs.info/w/UserContributedCode), not on CRAN. Author(s) states that it is equivalent for R2WinBUGS. I tried briefly, and realized few minor

Hi all, I did some analysis using package R2WinBUGS to call WinBUGS. I set the iterations to 50000 (fairly a large number, I think), but after the program was done, the effective posterior samples contained only 7 draws. I don't know why. By the way, I checked posterior sample size by using bugsobj$n.sims. And, for my previous practice with WinBUGS/R2WinBUGS, no such strange thing happend.

This weekend I noticed that my R2WinBUGS connection was no longer working on my Windows computer at work AND my Ubuntu linux computer at home. As soon as WinBUGS opens, the message reads Index Out Of Range. I have un-installed and re-installed R on both computers and the problem remains the same. At first I thought it was the new version of R, but I was able to overcome the problem (on Windows

Dear All,   Currently I am running the following code:   library(stats4) library(odesolve) library(rgenoud) Input<-data.frame(SUB=c(1),time=c(0.5,3,10,15),lev=c(2.05,12.08,9.02,8)) XD<-500 IT<-3 diffeqfun<-function(time, y, parms) {   if(time<=IT)      dCpdt <- (XD/IT)/parms["Vol"] -

Dear All: Could anybody help me figure out why I get the Error message below while I running the example code of bugs() function in R2OpenBUGS packages? I have tried the code both in Win 7 and Ubuntu 12.04, but they show the same message. My R version is 2.15.1 in win7 and 2.15.0 in Ubuntu. Many thanks !

Hi, I tried to use MethComp library and this library make use of the WinBUGS by R2WinBuGUS, but I get the follow error in bugs.run: *Error in bugs.run(n.burnin, bugs.directory, WINE = WINE, useWINE = useWINE, : * Look at the log file and try again with 'debug=TRUE' to figure out what went wrong within Bugs. Anyone can help-me, please? Thanks Cleber library( MethComp ) library(

I am trying to figure out if it is possible to run winBUGS from within R, using R2winBUGS, without having winBUGS spawn any windows (basically - 'true' batch - no GUI actions at all). The reason being I have a machine which I (and several others) ssh/telnet into, and would like to run winBUGS without having to mount a virtual desktop of any kind. I've looked through the r2winBUGS

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,

Hello, I have a couple of questions with regards to fitting a coxph model to a data set in R: I have a very large dataset and wanted to get the baseline hazard using the basehaz() function in the package : 'survival'. If I use all the covariates then the output from basehaz(fit), where fit is a model fit using coxph(), gives 507 unique values for the time and the corresponding cumulative

Hello, I'm running R version 3.4.2 on Windows. I have a program written in BUGS which I can successfully run from the R2WinBUGS package. I would also like to try and use the same package to use OpenBUGS (version 3.2.3) rather than WinBUGS. The initial output looks ok (shown below), but the OpenBUGS executable is never started. Instead I see a process running called ?BugsHelper.exe *32? in

Apologies if this isn't acceptable for the general help list. I'm running OpenBUGS model via the R2WinBUGS package interface, under Windows. Is it possible to terminate running models, short of using the Windows Task Manager to forcibly exit the program? Regards, Richie.

Dear R-users, I am trying to use the following code to reproduce results from Prof. Gelman's book, but have the listed error for R2WinBUGS version (the openbugs version is good). I am using R-2.6.1 on windows XP, and all the R packages are most current ones. schools.bug can be found at http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/bugsR/runningbugs.html . Can anyone help me to figure out what's

I've never seen this, and have no idea how to reproduce it. For resloution you are going to have to give me a working example of the failure. Also, per the posting guide, what is your sessionInfo()?

After running a model for a while and seeing that it did not converge yet, how can I continue to run, ie not starting anew, the model? I know if I manually/interactively use winbugs, this is possible anytime, but how can I do this in r2winbugs, so that my existing sim$sims.array and other stuff in the object that bugs() returns gets extended? Thanks Toby

Dear all, I'm calling Winbugs (1.4.3) through R2WinBugs (2.1-18 coda_0.14-7) to fit a switching random walk model, but come up with an instant trap with the log only displaying 'check('. I will paste the trap with session info below; I'd be very grateful for any ideas. Couple of leads: 1. I presume the problem relates to the r package itself or the way I call bugs(), because I

#======== This mail is forwarded from Mark Leeds (markleeds at verizon.net) who is experiencing troubles sending to the list himself. #======== Hi: ?I went through Soren Buhl's documentation for installing and running R2WinBUGS in linux. Thank you Soren for the nice documentation. I installed wine and I think it worked because I was able to get a winbugs pop up screen to open. I also

Dear R users I have been encountering an error (in the Winbugs window: Blackbox - index out of range ..... ). So to me it seems R2WinBUGS is not linking up well with the new R version since the same model runs well under r-2.9.2. So is my assumption correct or am I doing something wrong. The data I used and the code are in the help of R2WinBUGS (?bugs). Regards, -- Luwis Diya, Leuven

Dear All, I am trying to use the glmmBUGS package with OpenBUGS under Linux. Here is a short list of code I modified from the diseasemapping package document: ---------------------------------------- library(diseasemapping) data(popdata) data(casedata) model = getRates(casedata, popdata, ~age*sex, breaks=seq(0, 90, by=10) ) ontario = getSMR(popdata,model, casedata) spplot(ontario,

When I use the 'bugs' function from R, WinBUGS runs correctly, but R freezes. The only way to use R after this is to stop calculations (without my file that documents the calculation). However, I want to save the output in R so I can use it in further models. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? -- View this message in context:

Hi All Does anyone know if I can avoid to use the write.model() function below? I dont want to do this. Can't bugs() do that automatically for me just by specifying the 4th argument 'model'? Just I like I am also using the 'inits' object! If I use 'model' in the same way as I use 'inits' I am getting the error: > sim <- bugs(data, inits, parameters,
