Hi. I am new here, and I am writing this Winbugs code with BRugs. n=length(bi.bmi) Lagegp=13 Lgen=2 Lrace=5 Lstra=15 Lpsu=2 #model gen x race bi.bmi.model=function(){ # likelihood for (i in 1:n){ bi.bmi[i]~ dbern(p[i]) logit(p[i])<- a0 + a1[agegp[i]]+a2[gen[i]]+a3[race[i]] + a12[agegp[i], gen[i]] + gam[stra[i]]+ u[psu[i],stra[i]] } # constraints for a1, a2, a3, a12 a1[1]<-0.0 a2[1]<-0.0 a3[1]<-0.0 a12[1,1]<-0.0 # for(k in 2:Lgen){ a12[1,k]<-0.0} for(j in 2:13){ a12[j,1]<-0.0}
# priors a0~ dnorm(0.0, 1.0E-4) for(i in 2:13){a1[i]~dnorm(0.0, 1.0E-4)} for(j in 2:Lgen){ a2[j]~ dnorm(0.0, 1.0E-4)} for(k in 2:Lrace){ a3[k]~ dnorm(0.0, 1.0E-4)} for(i in 2:Lagegp){ for(j in 2:Lgen){ a12[i,j]~ dnorm(0.0, 1.0E-4) }} for(i in 1:Lstra){gam[i]~dunif(0, 1000)} for( i in 1:Lpsu){ for(j in 1:Lstra){ u[i,j]~ dnorm(0.0, tau.u) }} tau.u<-pow(sigma.u, -2) sigma.u~ dunif(0.0,100) } library(BRugs) writeModel(bi.bmi.model, con='bi.bmi.model2.txt') bi.bmi.model.data=list('n', 'Lagegp','Lgen', 'Lrace', 'Lstra', 'Lpsu', 'stra', 'psu','bi.bmi','agegp', 'gen', 'race') bi.bmi.model.init=function(){ list( sigma.u=runif(1), a0<-rnorm(1), a1<-c(NA,rep(0, 12)), a2<-c(NA, rep(0, Lgen-1)), a3<-c(NA, rep(0, Lrace-1)), a12<-matrix( c(rep(NA, 13), NA,rep(0, 12)), ncol=2), gam<-rep(1,Lstra), u<-matrix(rep(0, 30), nrow=2) ) } bi.bmi.model.parameters=c( 'a0', 'a1', 'a2', 'a3', 'a12') bi.bmi.model.bugs=BRugsFit(modelFile='bi.bmi.model2.txt', data=bi.bmi.model.data, inits=bi.bmi.model.init, numChains=1, para=bi.bmi.model.parameters, nBurnin=20, nIter=40) When I run this I get this message. model is syntactically correct data loaded array index is greater than array upper bound for a1 [1] "C:\\DOCUME~1\\Owner\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\RtmpNvSdyb/inits1.txt" Initializing chain 1: model must be compiled before initial values loaded model must be initialized before updating model must be initialized before DIC an be monitored Error in samplesSet(parametersToSave) : model must be initialized before monitors used I checked the main effects alone, and it works fine, so I don't really understand why it's saying, "array index is greater than array upper bound for a1." Anyone who could help me with this would be greatly appreciated.
