Breslow (1984) analyzed some mutagenicity assay data (shown below)
on salmonella in which three plates have been processed at each dose i of
quinoline and the number of revertant colonies of TA98 Salmonella measured. The data are available at http://www.math.ntnu.no/∼hrue/rinla.org/examples/Winbugs-data/Salm.txt or data(salm) in the mdhglm
package.
Are your estimates similar to those using the INLA package in R? Discuss
similarities and differences between the HGLM and INLA approaches.
[The INLA package can be installed using the R command install.
packages ("INLA", repos="http://www.math.ntnu.no/inla/R/
stable"), and the R code to run the INLA example is available at
http://www.r-inla.org/examples/volume-1/code-for-salm-example.]
