"lsqnonlin" constantly stopped for failing to integrate numerically

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I numerically solving a system of equations. Some have integral equations, for which I am using "integral", since there is no definite integral. My problem is that in some iterations "lsqnonlin" stops and returns the following message:
Warning: Reached the limit on the maximum number of intervals in use. Approximate bound on error is 2.0e+03. The integral may not exist, or it may be difficult to approximate numerically to the requested accuracy.
After a while the iterations continue running, but returns quickly to stop, delivering the same message.
What am I doing wrong ?, there is any way to fix it, maybe changing my integration method?

Is it possible that your problem is singular or highly oscillatory inside the interval of integration for some parameter values? I mean, well, this happens, and I'm not doing anything wrong:
> q = @(c)integral(@(x)cos(exp(c)*x),0,2*pi)
q =
@(c)integral(@(x)cos(exp(c)*x),0,2*pi)
>> q(5)
ans =
0.003496745772498
>> q(10)
Warning: Reached the limit on the maximum number of intervals in use. Approximate bound on error is 3.6e-02. The integral may not
exist, or it may be difficult to approximate numerically to the requested accuracy.

The problem is just hard. It is difficult to advise you how to proceed without knowing more about the problem. Would it be possible to supply a condensed example of one of the problem integrals that I could play with to figure out what is hard about it?

Instead of trying to push
(integral(f,a,b))^2 --->0
to zero with lsqnonlin, maybe it would be enough to push samples of the integrand to zero on the interval [a,b]
sum([f(a), f(a+delta), f(a+2*delta),+...+f(b)]).^2 --->0
using some appropriate sampling interval length, delta. This way you circumvent the difficult integral altogether, or at least you effectively get a more direct hand in the sampling it uses.
