Hi,
I've been trying to use the gsl_multimin* functions to optimize a set
of coordinates. I'm using the BFGS method but after the first iteration
the argument vector to the function to be minimized becomes NAN. The
function that I am minimizing takes 17 arguments in my current case but
it could take more. Would a large number of parameters affect the
functioning of the minimization function?
The values that are being passed to the function are in the range of 0 -
20 so I'm not sure where a NAN is being generated.
Any pointers would be appreciated
