QUESTION
I'm trying to install the package brms
in R so that I can rename the parameters returned from the function stan
(from the rstan
package). When I try install.package("brms", dependencies=TRUE)
, I get the (partial) output pasted at the end of this post (it's too long to paste the whole thing). At the end of the output, you can see that I get a series of "dependency errors", which makes sense because the very first error is not a dependency error, but rather a compilation error that says:

Is there a way to access the arguments of an R6 method?
For example, I can access the arguments of rstan::stan()
with:
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-22 at 19:42A basic feature of R6 is that methods belong to objects. They are not bound in the package namespace, per se, so it is not surprising that you are not able to access them with ::
or :::
. Here is an example taken directly from ?R6::R6Class

QUESTION
I am developing an R package that calls functions from the package rstan
. As a MWE, my test file is currently set up like this, using code taken verbatim from rstan
's example:
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-12 at 01:10It seems that devtools::test
evaluates the test code in a setting where S4 dispatch does not work in the usual way, at least for packages that you load explicitly in the test file (in this case rstan
). As a result, summary
dispatches to summary.default
instead of the S4 method implemented in rstan
for class "stanfit"
.
The behaviour that you're seeing might relate to this issue on the testthat
repo, which seems unresolved.
Here is a minimal example that tries to illuminate what is happening, showing one possible (admittedly inconvenient) work-around.

I want to extract the predicted values (in the generated quantities block) of the Stan fit and compare them with the real observations but I can't find an easy solution. here is how did it with a simple logistic regression model:

I am trying to run a Vector Autoregression model (VAR (1)) with heteroscedasticity in Stan. I can successfully run the model using JAGS but I don't know why Stan gives some errors when running the same model. Here is the data and model:

statement in the transformed parameters block to see which value is Nan (as it's stated in the error). So this is what I did:
QUESTION
Assume I have a multilevel structure of data. With a global distribution, from which I draw a highlevel distribution from which i draw a lowlevel distribution from which I draw my response variable. How would I implement such a thing in a stan model.
Below is a minimal example which I hope illustrates the problem. In the stan code there is
- one commented "model" section which is working, but ignores the mutlilevel aspect and treats every lower level equal, irrespective of the highlevel origin and provides therefor not shrinkage by the highlevel order (see pic).
- A "model"section with a forloop, which I though would do what I want, but takes forever to finish, and with a lot of warnings (Rhat, treedepth, Bayesion Fraction, low ESS)
I am quite inexperienced with modeling and all tutorials on ML-Modeling do not have the Loop-Approach I though would make sense here, so I suspect I am completely heading in the wrong direction with that. So any help will be highly appreciated.

QUESTION
I build a simple hierarchical stan model retrieve the probability theta of binomial distribution (code below).
My input data is a table with the information of Number of all (N) and successful (n) trials, and metadata to which group it belongs (x:0-1, t:1-225, g:1-4 and c:1-4)
N n x t g c 123 10 1 1 1 2 531 500 1 0 1 1 12 6 0 1 2 1Running it with rstan, I get the following error during/after sampling:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-05 at 14:14I got a solution:
Apperently there are to many (unnecessary) intermediate variables, which then crashes the program. You can get rid of theta by substituting "binomial()" with "binomial_logit()". And the for-loop can be also substituted with a more elegant alternativ.
QUESTION
I am making the convergence graph of the chains generated using the traceplot function. However, see what unusual lines are appearing on the chart. How would you go about removing them?

Below are the codes.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jan-28 at 23:21By setting col="black"
you have removed the information ggplot needs to keep the traces for each chain separate. Adding aes(group=chain)
as below appears to work (although I would consider whether you really want to make the chains indistinguishable from each other: part of the point of showing a trace plot is to verify that the different chains have similar behaviour ...)
QUESTION
I try to run an R script at regular intervals to update a webpage. The script runs fine when called from the terminal like this:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jan-01 at 16:28It looks like I finally managed to fix this, and I'm posting my solution here for anyone who encounters the same problem.
I ran env
in terminal to see my current user environment. I copy-pasted the full output to the top of my crontab file. (Simply adding the PATH variable was not sufficient. I suppose it was SHELL or perhaps both PATH and SHELL that did the trick, but I haven't explored this further.)
To edit my user's crontab, I ran crontab -e
, then pressed i
to edit the file, pasted everything from env
at the top of the file, stopped editing by pressing ctrl + c
, and quit by typing :wq
and hitting enter.
