Questions tagged [fminsearch]

For questions about the Matlab function fminsearch that computes the unconstrained minimum of a given function with the Nelder-Mead algorithm.

SYNOPSIS

x = fminsearch ( costf , x0 )
x = fminsearch ( costf , x0 , options )
[x,fval,exitflag,output] = fminsearch ( costf , x0 , options )

Description

This function searches for the unconstrained minimum of a given cost function.

The provided algorithm is a direct search algorithm, i.e. an algorithm which does not use the derivative of the cost function. It is based on the update of a simplex, which is a set of k>=n+1 vertices, where each vertex is associated with one point and one function value. This algorithm is the Nelder-Mead algorithm.

Using fminsearch to solve an equation

(vgb-phy_s)^2=G^2*phy_t*((exp(-x)+x-1)+exp(-(2*phi_b/phi_t))*(exp(x)-x-1)) where x=phy_s/phy_t phy_t=0.0288; % phy_t=k*T/q; (k=1.3806503*10^-23, T=300 K, q=1.6*10^-19) phy_b=0.5267; % phy_b=phy_t*ln(Na/ni) G=(sqrt(2*q*es*Na)/cox); Here I need to…
