Hello All,

Does anyone know how to specify a multivariate normal distribution with boundary constraints.

The specification for a univariate normal variable in the positive region is:

beta[t] ~ dnorm(0,0.25) I(0,)

The specification for a multivariate normal distribution is:

beta[t,1:5] ~dmnorm(Meanbeta,Precbeta[,])

It is not clear to me how to specify a truncated (i.e., restricted to the positive region) multivariate normal distribution.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
