JAGS is Just Another Gibbs Sampler. It is a program for analysis of
|
|
Bayesian hierarchical models using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)
|
|
simulation not wholly unlike BUGS.
|
|
JAGS was written with three aims in mind:
|
|
* To have an engine for the BUGS language that runs on Unix
|
|
* To be extensible, allowing users to write their own functions,
|
|
distributions and samplers.
|
|
* To be a plaftorm for experimentation with ideas in Bayesian modelling
