Good afternoon sir, i'm a student in Indonesia who study technology management, i need to review the software i'v been develop, i was told to use bayesian SEM because i don't have large sample. i don't know much about statistics but i try to make a code via winbugs.. and a i got a problem. here i attach my winbugs code and my model. could you hep me to find what's wrong with my

Dear Wine-friends, I was wondering if any of you would have a clue around why WinBUGS (http://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/bugs/), a nifty Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler widely used in Bayesian statistical modelling, no longer works when run through any version of WINE newer than 1.1.12. I have encountered this issue of my machines at home (which runs on Zenwalk 6.0) and work (Mandriva 2008.1) a

Hi folks, I'm forwarding this to the list as my email to nita was about getting her code to the list. Additionally, I'm running Linux and have no experience with WinBUGS.

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 having trouble running a script within winbugs when calling winbugs from R. Here are a few lines from the winbugs log: display(log) check(C:\DOCUME~1\michael\LOCALS~1\Temp\RtmpjKnHMu\mm_TO_bugs9bc21e.txt) cannot open C:\DOCUME~1\michael\LOCALS~1\Temp\RtmpjKnHMu\mm_TO_bugs9bc21e.txt data(C:/DOCUME~1/michael/LOCALS~1/Temp/RtmpjKnHMu/data.txt) command #Bugs:data cannot be executed (is

Hello everyone, I need some help regarding calling WinBUGS from R. I have a model for WinBUGS and an R code which calls WinBUGS. On running the code I am being shown the error message : Error in file(con, "wb") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning messages: 1: In file.create(to[okay]) : cannot create file 'c:/Program

Dear all, I want to run two winBugs process through R (by R2WinBUGS package). The first WinBUGS process can successfully perform under R. The error message appears while I put the code to run for the second WinBUGS. The error message: Error in file(file, ifelse(append, "a", "w")) : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(file, ifelse(append,

Hi, I am very new to R and Winbugs. I have been provided with a code that runs Winbugs from R. The code runs 60 different models and I would like to either save the Winbugs log file for each of these or reproduce the WinBugs plots which show convergence over the iterations.I can do this by using Debug=true and saving manually each time but obviously this is very time consuming. Many thanks Ruth

Hi All, I'm using WinBUGS on a very simple survival model (log-normal with one covariate "Treat"), but I cannot understand the way it handles censored data. I'm posting the R file which generates the data from pre-specified parameters, as well as the .bug file. The question is, if I use NA to denote the censored data (as suggested by the example Mice in WinBUGS Example Vol.I),

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

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

I have a problem with Winbugs. The code is executed perfectly, the only problem is that the stats option isn't available (grey color) and i don't know how to make it work. Maybe if i run the winbugs throug R i will be able to get stats results? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Winbugs-tp4451373p4451373.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at

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).

Hi, I am trying to covert a Winbugs code into R code. Here is the winbugs code model{# model’s likelihoodfor (i in 1:n){time[i] ~ dnorm( mu[i], tau ) # stochastic componenent# link and linear predictormu[i] <- beta0 + beta1 * cases[i] + beta2 * distance[i]}# prior distributionstau ~ dgamma( 0.01, 0.01 )beta0 ~ dnorm( 0.0, 1.0E-4)beta1 ~ dnorm( 0.0, 1.0E-4)beta2 ~ dnorm( 0.0, 1.0E-4)#

Please suggest a way out to the following problem. I have a T by n data matrix (say Y) where coulmns are time series of length T. To do some analysis in WinBUGS I need to construct my data as follows. yy<-rep(Y,k) ## this will be a vector Yk<-array(yy,dim=c(T,n,k)) ## data array Here the definition of dim indices is first index: T rows second index: n columns third index: for kth T by n
