使用时jags.parallel,我收到以下错误:

> out <- jags.parallel(win.data, inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
+ nc, ni, nb, nt);
Error in get(name, envir = envir) : invalid first argument

使用jags函数的相同调用运行正常。我只找到了一个关于这个主题的线程,但只有一个推测性的建议在这里不适用也不行。

可重现的代码,取自生态学家 WinBUGS 简介,见第 14.1 章(稍作修改):

set.seed(123)

### 14.1.2. Data generation
n.site <- 10
x <- gl(n = 2, k = n.site, labels = c("grassland", "arable"))
eps <- rnorm(2*n.site, mean = 0, sd = 0.5)# Normal random effect
lambda.OD <- exp(0.69 +(0.92*(as.numeric(x)-1) + eps) )
lambda.Poisson <- exp(0.69 +(0.92*(as.numeric(x)-1)) ) # For comparison

C.OD <- rpois(n = 2*n.site, lambda = lambda.OD)
C.Poisson <- rpois(n = 2*n.site, lambda = lambda.Poisson)

sink()


# Bundle data
win.data <- list(C.OD = C.OD, x = as.numeric(x)-1, n = length(x))

# Inits function
inits <- function(){ list(alpha=rlnorm(1), beta=rlnorm(1), sigma = rlnorm(1))}

# Parameters to estimate
params <- c("lambda","alpha", "beta", "sigma", "maybe_overdisp")

# MCMC settings
nc <- 3     # Number of chains
ni <- 3000     # Number of draws from posterior per chain
nb <- 1000     # Number of draws to discard as burn-in
nt <- 5     # Thinning rate

require(R2jags)

# THIS WORKS FINE
out <- R2jags::jags(win.data, inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
    nc, ni, nb, nt);

# THIS PRODUCES ERROR
out <- jags.parallel(win.data, inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
    nc, ni, nb, nt);

# THIS ALSO PRODUCES ERROR
out <- do.call(jags.parallel, list(win.data, inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
    nc, ni, nb, nt));

Jags/R 这条线实际上有两个问题:

out <- jags.parallel(win.data, inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
    nc, ni, nb, nt);

两者都与函数参数的评估有关 - 他可能无法解析引用其他 R 变量的参数:

1)win.data与 WinBUGS/Jags 一样,被编码为变量名:

win.data <- list(C.OD = C.OD, x = as.numeric(x)-1, n = length(x))`

jags.parallel发出错误“get(name, envir = envir) 中的错误:第一个参数无效”。他想要这种格式的数据:

windata <- list("C.OD", "x", "n")

为什么?不要问我......我在阅读?jags.

2)nc, ni, nb, nt函数调用中的参数有问题!如果我放常量就可以了,但是对变量的引用对他来说是不可接受的。不要问我为什么。在奇怪的 jags.parallel 错误/避免函数调用中的惰性求值处发现了补救措施。

完整的修复如下所示:

out <- do.call(jags.parallel, list(names(win.data), inits, params, "Poisson.OD.t.test.txt",
    nc, ni, nb, nt));
