I'm trying to use fminbnd to find a scalar k that minimizes the difference between three sets of values, but receive the above error.

My Function:

function[f] = min_diff(k,sample1,sample2,sample3)
  alpha1 = 5 ./ (sample1 .^ k);
  alpha2 = 7 ./ (sample2 .^ k);
  alpha3 = 10 ./ (sample3 .^ k);
  mean1 = mean(alpha1);
  mean2 = mean(alpha2);
  mean3 = mean(alpha3);
  f = abs(mean1-mean2) + abs(mean1-mean3) + abs(mean2-mean3);

Code to run function:

[k_estimate,fval,exitflag] = fminbnd(@(k) min_diff(k,sample1,sample2,sample3),0,[],options);

Full Error Message:

  Matrix dimensions must agree.
   Error in min_diff (line 3)
