fminsearch, Not enough input arguments.

Below is my code to estimate the parms1 and parms2.

Anyone can give me some helps?

Thanks!

function rresult = calibgrain(DBn_2,dateob,Tb)
    
    dss = linspace(0.01,3,100);
    ggf = linspace(0.5,5,100);
    
    rresult = [];
    for ii = 1:length(dss)
        for jj = 1:length(ggf)
            dsnowi = dss(ii);grfactor = ggf(jj);
            startparms = [dsnowi  grfactor];
            
            %rosen = @RMSE1 RMSE1(startparms);
            %fminsearch(@(prms) BER_optimise(prms(1), prms(2)),x0)
            bestparms = fminsearch(@(parms) RMSE1(parms), startparms);
 
            %bestparms = fminsearch(@RMSE1,RMSE1(startparms));  %fminsearchbnd(@(x) f(x,c),[0.3;1], [0 0],[5 5])
            dsnowi = bestparms(1);
            grfactor = bestparms(2);
            [dsns_2,lws,btotals,phis,dsnows_y2_r1,tsnows,sds_0,kss,tsss,gds,outmelts,YEH,YEV,YEVH, YEHV,result,compaction,ritisi,stor,ro] = msnow(1,6552,DBn_2,dsnowi,grfactor);
            rmsecomp = calcrmse(YEH,dateob,Tb);
            rresult = [rresult ;dsnowi grfactor rmsecomp];
        end    % end of jj loop
    end % end of ii loop
    
    function thisrmse = RMSE1(parms)
        % nest this function inside calibgrain so that it has
        % access to all of calibgrain's variables.
        dsnowi = parms(1);
        grfactor = parms(2);
        [dsns_2,lws,btotals,phis,dsnows_y2_r1,tsnows,sds_0,kss,tsss,gds,outmelts,YEH,YEV,YEVH, YEHV,result,compaction,ritisi,stor,ro] = msnow(1,6552,DBn_2,dsnowi,grfactor);

Next time please give the entire error message by copying and pasting everything in red:

Not enough input arguments.

Error in calibgrain/RMSE1 (line 30)

[dsns_2,lws,btotals,phis,dsnows_y2_r1,tsnows,sds_0,kss,tsss,gds,outmelts,YEH,YEV,YEVH,

YEHV,result,compaction,ritisi,stor,ro] = msnow(1,6552,DBn_2,dsnowi,grfactor);

Error in calibgrain>@(parms)RMSE1(parms) (line 14)

bestparms = fminsearch(@(parms) RMSE1(parms), startparms);

Error in fminsearch (line 201)

fv(:,1) = funfcn(x,varargin{:});

Error in calibgrain (line 14)

bestparms = fminsearch(@(parms) RMSE1(parms), startparms);

The error is in the msnow function, not in how you are calling fminsearch.

Thanks.

Error occurs at 200 in fminsearch

fv(:,1) = funfcn(x,varargin{:});

I have tested msnow, but no other errors occured.

Answer 2

I think I corrected my stupid codes. Thanks for your time!

dsnowi = 0.01; %dss(ii);

grfactor = 0.5; %ggf(jj);

startparms = [dsnowi grfactor];

%rosen = @RMSE1 RMSE1(startparms);

%fminsearch(@(prms) BER_optimise(prms(1), prms(2)),x0)

bestparms = fminsearch(@(parms) RMSE1(parms,DBn_2,dateob,Tb), startparms);

%RMSE1(parms,DBn_2,dateob,Tb)

%in another editor window, RMSE1 is defined as:

%search parameters

function thisrmse = RMSE1(parms,DBn_2,dateob,Tb)

% nest this function inside calibgrain so that it has

% access to all of calibgrain's variables.

dsnowi = parms(1);

grfactor = parms(2);

[dsns_2,lws,btotals,phis,dsnows_y2_r1,tsnows,sds_0,kss,tsss,gds,outmelts,YEH,YEV,YEVH, YEHV,result,compaction,ritisi,stor,ro] = msnow(1,6552,DBn_2,dsnowi,grfactor);

thisrmse = calcrmse(YEH,dateob,Tb);

end % end of function RMSE1
