Is there an error in the documentation for the LSQCURVEFIT function of Optimization Toolbox 2.1.1 (R12.1)?

The documentation for LSQCURVEFIT in Optimization Toolbox 2.1.1 (R12.1) does not mention the limitations of the medium-scale algorithm. Specifically, the line-search algorithms cannot be used if upper or lower bound conditions are given. This is the same limitation of the LSQNONLIN function. This limitation exists because LSQCURVEFIT provides an interface for LSQNONLIN designed specifically for curve-fitting problems.

This issue has been fixed in documentation of the Optimization Toolbox 2.2 (R13).

This is an error within the documentation for Genetic Algorithm and Direct Search Toolbox 2.1 (R2007a). The documentation should implement the correct syntax as follows:

fun = @dejong5fcn;
[x fval] = simulannealbnd(fun, [0 0])
