Dear list I am calling the functiton bugs() provided by R2WinBugs to performs an IRT analysis. The function returns a set of estimated parameters over n replications/iterations. For each replication, two sets of person measures (theta1 and theta2) and two sets of item difficulty parameters (diff1 and diff2) are returned. The code used to obtain these estimates is as follows: sim <-

Dear R-help, I'm using the R2WinBUGS package and getting an error message: Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file 'codaIndex.txt', reason 'No such file or directory' I'm using R 2.2.1 and WinBUGS 1.4.1 on a windows machine (XP). My R code and WinBUGS code is given below.

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

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 !

I'm trying to read CODA/mcmc files (see the coda package), as generated by jags/WinBUGS/OpenBUGS, into a big.matrix. I can't load the whole mcmc object produced by read.coda() into memory since I'm using a laptop for this analysis (currently I'm unfunded). Right now I'm doing it by creating the filebacked.big.matrix, reading a chunk of data at a time from the chain

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

I'm currently using JAGS as my Bayesian program of choice due to working off of an older mac running OSX. I'd like to utilize some of the functions from R2WinBUGS, however. As such, I'm attempting to write something to go from coda output dumped by JAGS into the bugs object format - I've looked for functions that will convert from an mcmc object to a bugs object, but

Hello, I recently changed from Win XP to Mac OS X (10.5.1). Is there a way to run Bugs (in any version) in R (R version 2.6.0 (2007-10-03)) on this platform? Fredrik

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

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

Greetings - I run a multi-pro server box (GNU/Linux), on which I've installed winBUGS under wine. Works fine, and plays nice with r2WinBUGS, provided everything is done through a graphical front-end (either by working from console, or using a virtual desktop via VNC or equivalent). However, I'm wondering if there is a way to use R2winBUGS and winBUGS such that winBUGS does not spawn

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've managed to get JAGS working on my Ubuntu Hardy Linux with a 32-bit computer and AMD processors using R 2.8.1. JAGS is great. I've read that JAGS is the fastest, but that hasn't been my experience. At any rate, I have more experience with WinBUGS under Windows and would like a version of that working as well. It seems like I've read a lot on the subject and tried a

Hi, I'm trying to install rjags and R2jags with R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22) on Linux Mint 12 machine using software repository: deb http://cran.fhcrc.org/bin/linux/ubuntu oneiric/ jags seems to install OK, but rjags gives a weird error about not finding fprec symbol. Here is a history of the problem including several attempts to work around it. (Because of Ben Bolker's recent

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 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

I have an array from an mcmc simulation and I'd like to try and use the monitor function in R2WinBUGS. The R2WinBUGS package is in the search path and when I try help(monitor) the help page appears for the function. But, when I try and use it the following happens: > monitor(sims) Error: couldn't find function "monitor" I've searched the archives but have not seen any

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
