similar to: The error while using R2WinBUGS

*Dear R-user, * I try to run Winbugs from R using bugs function in R2WinBUGS.My model works well in Winbugs except that I can't get DIC. Since I don't need DIC, when I try to run Winbugs from R , I set "DIC=FALSE". My model is as following: model { for (i in 1:N) { for(j in 1 : T ) { x[i, j] ~ dbin(p[i, j],n[i]) #Hier.prior p[i, j] ~ dbeta(alpha[i, j], beta[i, j]) alpha[i, j]

Dear all I used R2WinBUGS package's bugs() function to generate MCMC results. Then I tried to save the simulation draws in R, using read.bugs() function. Here is a simple test: ###################### library(coda) library(R2WinBUGS) #fake some data to test beta0=1 beta1=1.5 beta2=-1 beta3=2 N=200 x1=rnorm(N, mean=0,sd=1) x2=rnorm(N, mean=0,sd=1) x3=rnorm(N, mean=0,sd=1) lambda2= exp(beta0+

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,

Dear Users, I am new to both of things, so do not blame me too much... I am busy with semiparametric regression and use WinBUGS to sample posteriors. The code to call Winbugs is as follows: data <- list("y","X","n","m") #My variables inits.beta <- rep(0,K) inits.beta0 <- 0 inits <-

Dear all, I'm having a slight issue with R2WinBugs.... it cannot detect where WinBUGS is located. Q: How can I change the default path? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Regards Erica I'm using R2WinBUGs (R version 2.21.1) on windows platform (Windows 7). I have downloaded WinBUGS14.exe and patch 1.4.3. As i'm working with Windows 7 (similiar issues to Vista occur),

Hi, I am trying to use WinBUGS using R, but i am having some problems using bugs function: out <- bugs(data = win.data, inits = inits, parameters.to.save = params, model.file = "model.txt", n.thin = nt, n.chains = nc, n.burnin = nb, n.iter = ni, debug = TRUE, DIC = TRUE, working.directory = getwd()) ls() WinBUGS file is in working directory=D:/Line/documents but R looks for

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

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

Hi, I??m trying to use the Win2BUGS package from R and I have a similar problem that reurns with the message: Error in FUN(X[[1]], ...) : symbol print-name too long But, there is no stray ` character in the file ( Sugestions given by: Duncan Temple Lang <duncan> Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2005 07:31:08 -0700 ) The progam in R is: library(R2WinBUGS) library(rbugs) dat <-

I'm having difficulty running R2WinBugs on a setup that previously worked for me (Dell Laptop, Windows XP service pack 3, R 2.11.1, WinBugs 1.43) . When I issue the following command smds.sim <- bugs (data, inits, parameters, "SMDSbrandLoc2.bug", debug = T, n.thin = n.thin, n.chains = n.chains, n.burnin = n.burnin, n.iter = n.iter) I get the following error in R

Dear All 1) I'm fitting spatial CAR models using R2Winbugs and although everything seems to go reasonably well (or I think so) the next message appears from WINBUGS 1.4 window: gen.inits() Command #Bugs: gen.inits cannot be executed (is greyed out) The question is if this message means that something is wrong and the results are consequently wrong, or Can I assume it as a simple warning

Dear R user: I am using R2WinBUGs to call WinBUGS from R. But I have some problems in using either the option bugs.seed and summary.only in the function bugs. Here are the programs and error messages. It appears that if I don't use either option, the program runs fine. I am using R2.5.1 and WinBUGs14. The program is not running: > schools.sim <- bugs(data, inits,

I am trying to run WinBUGS 1.4 from the Ubuntu 6.10 Linux distribution. I am using the R2WinBUGS packages with the source file listed below. WinBUGS appears to run properly, but I get the following message after WinBUGS starts in WINE. Does anyone know what may be causing this error and what the correction may be? Thanks ERROR MESSAGE: fixme:ole:GetHGlobalFromILockBytes cbSize is 13824

Dear UseRs, Apologies, I tried to post to the list yeasterday, but (for some reason) part of my message got missed off. Here's a second attempt. I am having some problems using R with WinBUGS using the R2WinBUGS package. Specifically, when I try to run bugs() I get the following message. Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : .C(..): 'type' must be "real" for this format To

Hi R-Help! I am trying to use R2WinBUGS but I get the following error message in WinBUGS (and there must be something wrong with my R statement as I tried it directly in WinBUGS and it worked): display(log) check(C:/Documents and Settings/Daikon/Roche/pop_model.txt) model is syntactically correct data(C:/Documents and Settings/Daikon/Roche/data.txt) expected key word structure compile(7) ...(and

R2WinBUGS users, I'm getting the error message "monitor could not be set" when I try to monitor (and output to R) a response variable that includes missing data (NAs)...ie.e imputing for y. Setting monitors for other parameters works OK and running the R-generated WinBUGS script file in WinBUGS, also works OK. Below is my R code and the log.txt file output by R2WinBUGS. As I want to

Hi All: I had a basic question to ask. I am running R2WinBUGS so that I could automate the running of my model using 1000 simulated datasets. Below is the code I am using. The only problem I am having is the bugs output that comes out shows my parameters as nos with 1 decimal place after. I would want to have the parameters with 5 places after decimal. How would I specify that in my code for

Dear R lists, I ran Winbugs under R.
