Hi I am trying to estimate the proportion of species landed by species. But I always get error messages.
Can you please help me? Thanks Ivone I am trying to use R2Winbugs to skate.4 <- bugs (skateA.data, inits=skatesA.inits, skateA.parameters, model1.file, n.chains=1, n.iter=50, bugs.directory="C:/Program Files (x86)/OpenBUGS/OpenBUGS323/", program=c("OpenBUGS"), debug=TRUE) skateA.data <- list(n=length(y_A), y_A =y_A, Species_A= Species_A, n.species_A=n.species_A) skateA.parameters <- c ("mu","b.species", "sigma.species", "sigma.epsilon") skatesA.inits <- function (){ list (mu=rnorm(0.5), b.species=rnorm(0.2), sigma.species=runif(1), sigma.epsilon=runif(1))} The model is model { for (i in 1:n){ y[i] ~ dpois (lambda[i]) lambda[i] <- exp(mu+b.species[Species_A[i]] + epsilon[i]) epsilon[i] ~ dnorm (0, tau.epsilon) } mu ~ dnorm (0, .0001) mu.adj <- mu + mean(b.species[]) tau.epsilon <- pow(sigma.epsilon, -2) sigma.epsilon ~ dunif (0, 100) b.species[1] <-0 for (j in 2:n.species_A){ b.species[j] ~ dnorm (0, tau.species) } tau.species <- pow(sigma.species, -2) sigma.species ~ dunif (0, 100) } the data are: n <- 54 n.species_A <- 3 y <- c(6.80,10.20 124.20, 6.350, 0.00,63.20, 0.00, 0.00,86.850, 3.60, 2.550,60.950,0.00, 0.00,87.20, 2.60, 0.00,58.10, 3.360,34.990,62.140, 0.00, 0.00,63.90,0.00, 0.00 112.660, 0.00, 0.00 121.630, 0.00, 3.580 101.770, 0.00, 0.00 158.00,0.00, 0.00 123.279, 0.00, 0.00 124.255, 3.170, 0.00,27.840, 5.930, 0.00 174.435,0.00, 0.00,53.525, 0.00, 4.858,68.945) Species <- c("RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC", "RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE", "RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH", "RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH”, “RJC”, “RJE”, “RJH") [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
