Question: Maple and Matlab - Global Optimization toolbox

Hi,

On page 32 (PDF)

 

Two different results were obtained using the Global optimization.

Log likelihood does not differ much. BUT the estimates vary a lot, such as mu[p].

When I tried to use one of the answer from a particular run, I get the HFLOATING error, see picture.

So how reliable is this? Could there be a better way to optimize this ?

 

Thanks!

 

As an additional note, if I have Matlab R2014a, could I use Matlab to optimize the target function? DO I need to purchase a seperate addon?

 

Please Wait...
