unconstrained nonlinear optimization problem
显示 更早的评论
Hello,
Kindly I have a question concerning nonlinear optimization problem. I have the following problem:
How I can define this objective function in matlab?
Thank you

Why fmincon? You have no constraints. You probably should add some constraints, however, because the solution is currently not unique. Since the objective depends only on the differences 
, adding any constant to any optimal 
will produce another optimal solution.

Why isn't 
for all i a solution? Shouldn't that make every term in the sum zero, and that ought to be the smallest possible value...

And why would you bother to use fmincon to minimize a function that can be solved using multiple linear regression in the first place?
Not only are you wanting to use a Mack truck to carry a pea to Boston, but you never even needed any truck at all. A bycycle would suffice.
And as Bjorn points out, a trivial solution exists anyway.

Still, there are no constraints, so I think you should be using fminunc. Also, your revised objective function is not differentiable near theta=X, so you'll have to hope that the optimizer doesn't search there.
N=nchoosek(n,2);
I=1:N;
J=nchoosek(1:n,2);
C=(sparse(I,J(:,1),1,N,n)+sparse(I,J(:,2),-1,N,n)).';
thetaOptimal=fminunc(@(theta) P(theta,X,C,d), theta0);
function fval=P(theta,X,C,d)
%theta - pxn matrix of unknowns
% X - known pxn matrix
% d - column vector of length nchoosek(n,2)
V=vecnorm((X-theta)*C,2,1);
fval=norm(d-V(:)).^2;
end
