Hello Matlab community,
I am looking for help because I have an issue with parfor and optimization algorithms.
I have an optimization written as follows:
[x,fval] = patternsearch(@ObjFunc,start_par,[],[],[],[],min_par,max_par,@constraints,opts);
I need to optimize the parameters to separately fit an ensemble of curves, stored in an array. To speed the calculation up, I would like to use "parfor".
In my ObjFunc, I have the following code:
load('file.mat');exp_curve = file(:,li);
where "li" is the loop variable.
Working with a normal "for cycle", I would pass "li" as global. Global variables do not work while using "parfor", and I haven't yet found a way to pass the loop variable to my ObjFunc.
Do you have suggestion that can help me?
Best regards.
