I have the data and code below and would appreciate your help to estimate DIC
(or AIC
) for a beta regression model with zoib
:
library(zoib)
data("GasolineYield", package = "zoib")
re.md <- zoib(yield ~ temp | 1 | 1, data=GasolineYield,
joint = FALSE, random=1, EUID=GasolineYield$batch,
zero.inflation = FALSE, one.inflation = FALSE,
n.iter=3200, n.thin=15, n.burn=200)
sample2 <- re.md$coeff
summary(sample2)
Following the package's vignette and the article published by the authors, I implemented the code below to get DIC
, but I get an error:
dic.samples(sample2, n.iter=201, thin = 1, type="pD")
Error in nchain(model) : Invalid JAGS model object in nchain
I ran the same code with an object from coda.samples {rjags}
documentation and it worked:
data(LINE)
LINE$recompile()
LINE.out <- coda.samples(LINE, c("alpha","beta","sigma"), n.iter=1000)
summary(LINE.out)
dic.samples(LINE, n.iter=201, thin = 1, type="pD")
Then I checked the class of each of the objects above LINE
, sample2
, re.md
, and LINE.out
, and the output is:
class(LINE)
"jags"
class(re.md)
"list"
class(sample2)
"mcmc.list"
class(LINE.out)
"mcmc.list"
This suggests that my error is probably because the object sample2
is not of class jags
.
Therefore, I would appreciate any ideas on how I can get sample2
in a form that can be accepted by dic.samples
in order to be able to get DIC
(or AIC
) for my rd.md
model.
