Hi there

I am receiving the following error message:

Warning: Matrix is singular, close to singular or badly scaled. Results may be inaccurate. RCOND = NaN.
> In mpower>integerMpower (line 80)
  In ^ (line 49)
  In gaussfit (line 111)

The line in question is:

a = (F2)^(-1)*F'*(y-f0) + a0;

I wish to suppress, not solve, this problem and so I added the following to the beginning of my script, and yet still receive the error message. What am I doing wrong?

warning('off','MATLAB:singularMatrix')

This is not a script I originally wrote so I couldn't say. It just worked for my purpose. Though if you have a better way, not to mention a faster way, of doing it I am all ears. My process involves using this equation quite often and would love to shave some time off of it if possible.

I just had a look and the file (which fits a gaussian curve) is from 2012, so it might indeed be overdue for an update:

function [sigma, mu,error] = gaussfit( x, y, sigma0, mu0,runmode,idix)
% [sigma, mu] = gaussfit( x, y, sigma0, mu0 )
% Fits a guassian probability density function into (x,y) points using iterative 
% LMS method. Gaussian p.d.f is given by: 
% y = 1/(sqrt(2*pi)*sigma)*exp( -(x - mu)^2 / (2*sigma^2))
% The results are much better than minimazing logarithmic residuals
%
% INPUT:
% sigma0 - initial value of sigma (optional)
% mu0 - initial value of mean (optional)
%
% OUTPUT:
% sigma - optimal value of standard deviation
% mu - optimal value of mean
%
% REMARKS:
% The function does not always converge in which case try to use initial
% values sigma0, mu0. Check also if the data is properly scaled, i.e. p.d.f
% should approx. sum up to 1
% 
% VERSION: 23.02.2012
% 
% EXAMPLE USAGE:
% x = -10:1:10;
% s = 2;
% m = 3;
% y = 1/(sqrt(2*pi)* s ) * exp( - (x-m).^2 / (2*s^2)) + 0.02*randn( 1, 21 );
% [sigma,mu] = gaussfit( x, y )
% xp = -10:0.1:10;
% yp = 1/(sqrt(2*pi)* sigma ) * exp( - (xp-mu).^2 / (2*sigma^2));
% plot( x, y, 'o', xp, yp, '-' );

Two thoughts:

First: Are you certain you have the correct warning? After you run your code that gives the warning, what is the output of

w = warning('query','last')

(Your warning does look like it matches the one you are turning off, so I'm guessing that's not the issue.)

Second: I believe that turning off warnings only persists for the session. Does this warning happen during the same session in which you turned it off?
