    A few months ago I started developing my own functions to JAGS, based on Wabersich and Vandekerckhove (2014). I already created a spatial module containing several functions that build covariance matrices for point-referenced data. My goal is to build something more complete than GeoBUGS, to allow JAGS users to model spatial data in a simple fashion. Now I want to implement the proper CAR distribution for areal data. I'm running into some issues when implementing this multivariate distribution. I've...

    Dear all, I've started developing my own modules implementing functions and distributions to be used in JAGS. So far, they work properly for univariate distributions. After that, I tried to implement multivariate cases. As a start, I focused on simply implementing the multivariate normal distribution, using the class ArrayDist, which is located in the JAGS subfolder /srs/include/distribution. By Inheriting from this class, I'm required to implement a random sampler for this distribution within the...
