Hi again,
I was asked to provide some code. Well, in my case it doesn't really
matter which example I use, so I just write down a very basic and
canned example:
First I create some data:
N <- 1000
x <- rnorm(N, 0, 5)
Then I specify a model in JAGS, storing it in the directory with the
extension .bug:
model {
for (i in 1:N) {
x[i] ~ dnorm(mu, tau) ## the model
}
mu ~ dnorm(0, .0001) ## uninformative priors
tau <- pow(sigma, -2)
sigma ~ dunif(0, 100)
}
Then I call the rjags library and finally I try to run the jags model:
library('rjags')
jags <- jags.model('example.bug',
data = list('x' = x,
'N' = N))
This is where its always crashing, i.e. I don't get an error message,
but R simply stops working and I have to close and reopen the program.
I don't even start drawing samples from the model, it just crashes the
moment I try to call on JAGS.
Sorry for not providing the example right away,
Florian
