Hi All: Julia is opened for a terminal session using Julia -p 4.
A program test_SI_AR1.jl is run from the julia command line with the return exception on exception on exception on 4: exception on 3: 2: 5: ERROR: `PF_SI_AR1_inner` has no method matching PF_SI_AR1_inner(::Array{Any,1}) in anonymous at multi.jl:855 in run_work_thunk at multi.jl:621 in anonymous at task.jl:855 ERROR: `PF_SI_AR1_inner` has no method matching PF_SI_AR1_inner(::Array{Any,1}) in anonymous at multi.jl:855 in run_work_thunk at multi.jl:621 in anonymous at task.jl:855 ERROR: `PF_SI_AR1_inner` has no method matching PF_SI_AR1_inner(::Array{Any,1}) in anonymous at multi.jl:855 in run_work_thunk at multi.jl:621 in anonymous at task.jl:855 ERROR: `PF_SI_AR1_inner` has no method matching PF_SI_AR1_inner(::Array{Any,1}) in anonymous at multi.jl:855 in run_work_thunk at multi.jl:621 in anonymous at task.jl:855 ERROR: `exp` has no method matching exp(::Array{MethodError,1}) in PF_SI_AR1_outer at /home/jim_nason/jmn_work/smith/NS4/jl_code_Summer2015/SI_rho/MH_PF_test/PF_outer_example.jl:123 in include at ./boot.jl:245 in include_from_node1 at ./loading.jl:128 in reload_path at loading.jl:152 in _require at loading.jl:67 in require at loading.jl:51 while loading /home/jim_nason/jmn_work/smith/NS4/jl_code_Summer2015/SI_rho/MH_PF_test/test_SI_AR1.jl, in expression starting on line 88 Note that these error statements keep repeating until Julia is forced to shut down. The code for PF_outer_example.jl is attached. PF_outer_example.jl calls to PF_inner_example.jl, which is also attached. This code implements a particle filter Markov chain Monte Carlo estimator of a state space model. The particle filter is run in PF_inner_example.jl. test_SI_AR1.jl loads parameters and coefficients of the model to be estimated along with the data, yyy, which is a nvar x obs array and passes these PF_outer_example.jl PF_outer_example.jl runs the particle filter on all the observations of yyy, j = 1, 2, ..., obs. At each j, PF_outer_example.jl does several computations and passes these, yyy[:,j], and the parameters and coefficients to PF_inner_example.jl PF_inner_example.jl runs the particle filter on observations yyy[.,j] for m = 1, 2, ..., mprt replications. mprt = the number of particles which be anywhere from 500 to 10,000. I am trying to implement a pmap command in PF_outer_example.jl to run the mprt particles in PF_inner_example.jl in parallel. With no success. I have tried a couple of variations of the pmap command, but the same error message above is always returned by Julia. The variations of the pmap command that I have tried are listed in PF_outer_example.jl. Obviously, I do not understand something that is fundamental to pmap. Any advice/suggestions are welcome. Best, Jim
