Hello, I tryed to use the MCMC pack, particularly the function MCMCirtKd to simulate the posterior distribution in a multidimensional IRT model. The code I used is: posterior1 <- MCMCirtKd(Y, dimensions=2, item.constraints=list("V2"=list(3,0)), burnin = 1000, mcmc = 10000, thin=1, verbose = 1, seed = NA, alphabeta.start = NA, b0 = 0, B0=0, store.item = FALSE,

I am trying to get summary statistics from WinBUGS/JAGS output in the form of mcmc.list objects, using the summary() function. However, I get odd warning messages: Warning messages: 1: In glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, : algorithm did not converge 2: In glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, : algorithm did

Hi, I have a dataset with the binary outcome Y(0,1) and 4 covariates (X1,X@,X#,X$). I am trying to use MCMClogit to model logistic regression using MCMC. I am getting an error where it doesnt identify the covariates ,although its reading in correctly. The dataset is a sample of actual dataset. Below is my code: > ####################### > > > #retreive data > # considering four

Hello, thank you very much for your previous answers about the C++ code. I am interested in the application of the Gibbs Sampler in the IRT models, so in the function MCMCirt1d and MCMCirtkd. I've found the C++ source codes, as you suggested, but I cannot find anything about the Gibbs Sampler. All the files are for the Metropolis algorithm. Maybe I am not able to read them very well, by the

Hi everyone: I am just wondering how can I use weights with MCMClogit function (in MCMCpack package). For example, in case of glm function as given below, there is weights option in the arguments. Aparently there is no option of using weights in MCMClogit. glm(formula, family = gaussian, data, weights, subset, na.action, start = NULL, etastart, mustart, offset, control =

I am receiving the above error ( full r session output below) the script runs OK in windows. and "genotypes" and "ploidy" are both correct arguments any suggestions would be most welcome Nevil Amos MERG/ACB Monash University School of Biological Sciences > library(Geneland) Loading required package: RandomFields Loading required package: fields Loading required

Dear All I try to use your R package MCMCpack and I have encountered the following problem: The following code works fine: library(MCMCpack) line <- list(X = c(-2,-1,0,1,2), Y = c(1,3,3,3,5)) posterior1 <- MCMCregress(X~Y, data=line) summary(posterior1) But as long as I try the following lines library(MCMCpack) line <- list(X = c(-2,-1,0,1,2), Y = c(1,3,3,3,5))

Dear R users, I am leaning MCMC sampling, and have a problem while trying to sample exponential r.v.'s via the following code: samp <- MCMCmetrop1R(dexp, theta.init=1, rate=2, mcmc=5000, burnin=500, thin=10, verbose=500, logfun=FALSE) I tried other distribtions such as Normal, Gamma with shape>1, it works perfectly fine. Can someon

Dear R users: I am using hierchical modeling for a response varible (ordinal) given by patients for each doctor. My MCMC run with MCMMCglmm ( thin=20,nitt=208000,burnin=24000, family='ordinal') still can't have all the parameters pass the GEWEKE diagnosis test. I am trying to find the reason for the slow convergence. Can the reason be 20 out of 50 doctors having 5 or less response

I am analysing parasite egg count data and am having trouble with glm with a negative binomial family. In my first data set, 55% of the 3000 cases have a zero count, and the non-zero counts range from 94 to 145,781. Eventually, I want to run bic.glm, so I need to be able to use glm(family= neg.bin(theta)). But first I ran glm.nb to get an estimate of theta: > hook.nb<- glm.nb(fh,

I am trying to fit the generalised linear model for the negative binomial, but the results which come out are attached below. When we fit this model using few covariates, the model converge. Does it mean that this family is fitted differently from other glm? or the number of zeros in my response variable has a limiting factor? Thanks Bruno fit <- glm.nb(pfde~SEX+...., data=data1) Warning

Dear list, >From an earlier post I got the impression that one could promote warnings from a glm to errors (presumably by putting options(warn=1)?), then try() would flag them as errors. I?ve spent half the day trying to do this, but no luck. Do you have an explicit solution? My problems is that I am trying to figure out during what conditions one may find 5 significant parameters in a

Dear R-users, I have some problems with the geweke.diag-Function of the coda-package. I try to obtain the Geweke-diagnostic by using the following, simple code: library(coda) input.geweke = as.mcmc(input.matrix) #input.matrix is a 25.000 x 35 matrix with the 25.000 saved draws of the 35 parameters of interest output = geweke.diag(input.geweke) However, I get the following

Hi All: Not sure why my previous question never got posted. Here I am seeking some help on my code. I am using the following code to run MCMC simulation on the following data using the model below: # Data matrix<-NULL > csvs<-paste("MVN", 1:2,".csv",sep="") > for (i in 1:length(csvs)){ + matrix[[i]]<- read.csv(file=csvs[i],header=TRUE) +

Full_Name: Lloyd Lubet Version: 2.4.1rc OS: XP Submission from: (NULL) (65.19.17.17) Dear Andrew, I am trying to learn gibbs sampling and Metropolis. When I run your gibbs version of multiple linear regression my session crashes. I have trimmed the dataframe and set my object.size = 1 gigB. Despite my best efforts it still crashes while advising me to contact the MCMC Pack developement team.

Hello R Users, I am having difficulty deleting the last warning message in a loop so that the only warning that is produced is that from the most recent line of code. I have tried options(warn=1), rm(last.warning), and resetting the last.warning using something like: > warning("Resetting warning message") This problem has been addressed in a previous listserve string,

Hello All, I'm trying to run a one-dimenional irt model using the packages MCMC and coda on a rather large set of roll-call voting data with many missing observations. Here's a sample of the code: Post10<- MCMCirt1d (Italy10, burnin = 1000, mcmc=50000, thin=100, verbose=TRUE, theta.constraints = list(V549=1, V443=-1)) The MCMCirt1d command seems to work fine, but when I try to

I got the following warning messages when I did a binomial logit regression using glm(): Warning messages: 1: Algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 2: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, Can some one share your thoughts on how to

Hi everyone, BEGINNER question: I get the error below when running hier.part. Probably i´m doing something wrong. Error in glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, : object 'fit' not found In addition: Warning messages: 1: In glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, : no observations informative at iteration 1

Hi there, I was trying to fit this dataset into LR model. This dataset includes 18 normal and 17 cancer. There are totally 14 markers (7 mRNAs and 7 Proteins). When I fitted into LR model, R gave me warning: Warning messages: 1: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart, 2: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred
