Strange error in using kmedoids function

Question

hi, thanks for your attention.

I'm trying to apply the kmedoids function to my dataset to cluster it into three subgroups. I set two additive parameters to the function by imposing "Algorithm" equal to "pam" and imposing a "Distance" defined by me (the Jensen – Shannon distance).

The command I run in my script is the following: kmedoids(X, 3, 'Algorithm', 'pam', 'Distance', @JSD) where X is the matrix, and JSD if the distance function difined by me. I ran the algorithm for different X data arrays and it works fine.

Only in the last run, with a new data matrix X, does it return the following error, and I don't know where the problem may be:
