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

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

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 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),

Dear I am trying to find a 90% credible interval. I am using the following code. fit<-bugs( model.file=BUGScode, data=data, inits = list(geninits1,geninits2), parameters.to.save=keepers, n.chains=nchains, n.iter=runs, n.burnin=burn, n.thin=nthin, DIC= TRUE, bugs.directory="C:/Program Files/WINBUGS.14", \ ) But this is only giving 95%

*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, I am running the following R code using the R2WINBUGS package. fit<-bugs( model.file=BUGScode, data=data, inits = list(geninits1,geninits2), parameters.to.save=keepers, n.chains=nchains, n.iter=runs, n.burnin=burn, n.thin=nthin, bugs.directory="C:/Program Files/WinBUGS14" ) I put this code and the corresponding WINBUGS code "BUGScode" in the same folder

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(

Dear R users: I was trying to fit a HMM with mixture of Gaussian into the dataset, and I tried to implement it by R2Winbugs. But I got the following errer. * Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : .C(..): 'type' must be "real" for this format* Does anybody know what's the problem? Does R2Winbugs accept some matrix as inits? I would really appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

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, 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 <-

Hello, I am trying to use R2WinBUGS to conduct a mixed treatment comparison (MTC) analysis. On the surface, it seems to me that I am following the correct steps: (1) reading the data into R, (2) specifying initial values for the parameters in the model and (3) fitting the model to the data using the bugs() function in R2WinBUGS. However, I get the error message

Hi All I dont know if anyone else has noticed the same thing, but with 2 subsequent runs of the same syntax, I am getting exactly the same results. I was expecting that results differ slighlty, say in the 4th or 5th decimal place. Is this a specialty with R2WinBUGS? Does it have something to do with the seed value? Isnt the seed value reset everytime I restart winbugs? Thanks Toby

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

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

Appologies for cross-posting Dear R users, I am using R2WinBUGS to call WinBUGS from R. After loading data, model, and initial values I call this command res <- bugs(data = dfile, inits = list(ifile), parameters.to.save = c("beta"), model.file = mfile, working.directory = tdir, n.thin = nthin, n.chains = 1, n.iter = niterations*nthin, n.burnin = 0, DIC = F, debug = T,

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

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 <-

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-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
