Dear R-helper, I am trying to do maximum likelihood estimation in R. I use the optim function. Since I have no prior information on the true values of the parameters, I just randomly select different sets of starting values to feed into the program. Each time, I get the following error

that worked out well, thank you again! I also tried to use lm, and as expected in this case, I almost got the same estimates of the parameters as in the MLE-case. Best Regards Henrik -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Maximum-Likelihood-Estimation-in-R
