Hello! I am attempting to build a dynamic linear model where the coefficients are constrained to be above 0 for domain-specific reasons. I would like to model the covariance between the coefficients (e.g. if one goes up, does that make another more likely to increase? decrease?) Stan does not allow…

Wow, thank you @bgoodri ! And so quick! Much appreciated.

In days where google archives anything I wished the old Stan google group could be held accessible. It’s a great source of information.
