Using fminunc for optimization matlab show me the message
"Computing finite-difference Hessian using user-supplied objective function."
The options I use in fminunc are:
options=optimset('Display','notify','MaxIter',10^6,'MaxFunEvals',10^6,'TolX',10^-30,'TolFun',10^-30, 'GradObj','off','Hessian','off','LargeScale','off','LinesearchType','cubicpoly','InitialHessType','user-supplied','InitialHessMatrix',1,'HessUpdate','steepdesc')
The objective function is:
function val = custom_pdf(A,data);
n=3; m=2;
sigma=A(m+2);esi=exp(sigma); lamda=A(m+3);ela=exp(lamda);
dep=data(1:n,1); regs=data(1:n,2:m+2); beta=A(1:m+1)'; ee=dep-regs*beta; fact=ee./esi;
val=(2./esi).*(normpdf(fact)).*(normcdf(-ela.*fact));
What I must to do to solve this problem?

If you remove the 'LinesearchType' option, the error disappears, just a warning
options=optimset('Display','notify','MaxIter',10^6,'MaxFunEvals',10^6,'TolX',10^-30,'TolFun',10^-30, 'GradObj','off','Hessian','off','LargeScale','off','LinesearchType','cubicpoly','InitialHessType','user-supplied','InitialHessMatrix',1,'HessUpdate','steepdesc')
Error using optimset (line 209)
The LineSearchType option is no longer valid. It was only used by the
Gauss-Newton algorithm, which is no longer used in Optimization toolbox
solvers.
but you still have to define the variable 'data' to avoid further errors.
I tried random data values, but again, A and the function custom_pdf() are not defined either which makes any further answering difficult.

I remove the 'LinesearchType' option but the problem still remains.
The data I use are random from standard normal, and the custom_pdf(A,data)=val=(2./esi).*(normpdf(fact)).*normcdf(-ela.*fact)) Is it possible the problem in optimization occurs because I have the version 7 of Matlab.

Your options make no sense to me. Remove all your options and I suspect that your problems will vanish.

Yes, you have an old version of MATLAB, but you should still be able to use it to minimize. Take a look at the documentation sections about what to do when the solver fails and what to do when the solver might have succeeded or when the solver takes too long.
Good luck,

Herr Weiss MATLAB does not get old, Christos just has an outdated version, he only needs to drive test R2016a
