Interesante … escribir BUGS pero sin utilizar BUGS…

Write statistical models in the BUGS language from R

NIMBLE adopts and extends BUGS as a modeling language and lets you program with the models you create.

Other packages that use the BUGS language are only for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). With NIMBLE, you can turn BUGS code into model objects and use them for whatever algorithm you want. That includes algorithms provided with NIMBLE and algorithms you write using nimbleFunctions. NIMBLE extends BUGS by allowing multiple parameterizations for distributions, user-written functions and distributions, and more.
