  1. \( \overline{D}= \) posterior mean of -2log(likelihood); \( \widehat{D}= \) 2log(likelihood) at posterior mean of stochastic nodes; \( {p}_D=\kern0.5em \overline{D}-\widehat{D} \), defines “effective number of parameters”; \( DIC=\overline{D} + {p}_D \), is deviance information criteria. d is the difference between the present model’s DIC and the lowest DIC.
