I’m relatively new to PyMC3, trying to setup a synthetic IRT model. The below code does sample, decent rhat, very low effective samples: k = np.array([1,1,1,1,1, 1,1,1,1,0, 1,1,1,0,0, 1,1,0,0,0, 1,0,0,0,0]).reshape(5,5) students = 5 questions…

As for the first question, the shape of theta is 5 because both z_student and z_question have shape of (5,). To get a value for each combination, you need to either instantiate variables with a shape of (25,) (which I think is probably not what you want) or you need to instantiate them with shapes t…
