A brief history
1989: project began with a Unix version called BUGS
1998: first Windows version, WinBUGS was born
Initially developed by the MRC Biostatistics Unit in Cambridge and now joint work with Imperial College School of Medicine at St Mary's, London.
Windows Bayesian inference Using Gibbs Sampling Software for the Bayesian analysis of complex statistical
models using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods

How to obtain and install WinBUGS
1. downloadable from:
http://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/bugs/winbugs/contents.shtml
(... see section Obtaining the File to download WinBUGS14.exe)
2. to install WinBUGS:
Exit all other programs currently running (particularly if using Windows XP); Copy WinBUGS14.exe to your computer; Double click on WinBUGS14.exe and follow the instructions in the dialog box; You should have a new directory called WinBUGS14 within Program Files;
Inside the WinBUGS14 directory is a program called WinBUGS14.exe; Right-click on the pretty WinBUGS icon, select `create shortcut', then drag this shortcut to the desktop;
Double click on WinBUGS14.exe to run WinBUGS14.

Principle You specify the prior and build up the likelihood
WinBUGS computes the posterior by running a Gibbs sampling algorithm, based on:
(|D) / L(D|) ()
WinBUGS computes some convergence diagnostics that you have to check

1. Do temperature and rainfall affect the number of chicks?
Yi = + r Ri + t Ti + i , i=1,...,23i i.i.d. ~ N(0,2)
2. Regression model:
3. Estimation of parameters: , r, t,
4. Frequentist inference uses t-tests
Yi i.i.d. ~ N(i,2), i=1,...,23
i = + r Ri + t Ti

Running WinBUGSWhat do you need?
1 - a model giving the likelihood and the priors
2 - some data of course
3 - initial values to start the MCMC algorithm
![Page 13: Introduction to WinBUGS Olivier Gimenez. A brief history 1989: project began with a Unix version called BUGS 1998: first Windows version, WinBUGS.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020717/56649e5c5503460f94b54b80/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Running WinBUGSThe model
use the WinBUGS command 'model'
don't forget to embrace the model with {...}
Define the likelihood...Yi ~ N( + r Ri + t Ti ,2)
Note: 2 = 1/
Specify the priors
We use noninformative or vague or flat priors
here
Monitor any other parameter you'd like to... e.g. 2 = 1/

Running WinBUGSData and initial values
Use 'list' structures (R/Splus syntax)......and 'vector' structures (R/Splus syntax)

Running WinBUGSOverall
1 - a model giving the likelihood and the priors
2 - data
3 - initial values

1- check model
2- load data
3- compile model
4- load initial values
5- generate burn-in values
6- parameters to be monitored
7- perform the sampling to generate posteriors
8- check convergence and display results

Running WinBUGS8. Checking for convergence using the Brooks-Gelman-
Rubin criterion
• A way to identify non-convergence is to simulate multiple sequences for over-dispersed starting points
• Intuitively, the behaviour of all of the chains should be basically the same.
• In other words, the variance within the chains should be the same as the variance across the chains.
• In WinBUGS, stipulate the number of chains after 'load data' and before 'compile' (obviously, as many sets of initial values as chains have to be loaded, or generated)

Climatic conditions affect survival in the wilda) European dippers in Eastern France (1981-1987)
Practical session 1
• Estimating survival using capture-recapture models
• CJS model: time-dependent survival and detection rates
• Case study a): A flood occured in the 1983 breeding season so that survival rates are expected to differ between flood (f) and non-flood (n) years
use constraints to estimate parameters f and n

Climatic conditions affect survival in the wildb) Lapwings in UK (1980-1993)
Practical session 2
• Estimating survival using ring-recovery models
• Case study b): Number of days that the mean temperature is below freezing in central England (fdays) is expected to affect Lapwings survival
use fdays as a covariate
• Strong assumption: variation in survival is totally explained by the covariate alone
incorporate random effects
