Re: starting values for grid search in a MLE
How can I tell EViews to perform the replacement automatically, i.e. by using a grid of values (e.g. for example by using 20 points from 0 to 3 for each of the parameters)?

starting values for grid search in a MLE
Dear moderators, I need your help in performing a grid search by going through different starting values for the parameters, performing a ML estimation and recording the output. So far I managed to write a program performing one ML estimation for given starting values of the parameter and store the ...

Re: maximum likelihood estimation
I tried LOGL but when I ran the estimation I got the message "WARNING: Singular covariance - coefficients are not unique". I suppose the problem is in the starting values of the coefficients. How can I bring EViews to run through different combinations of starting values for the parameters...

maximum likelihood estimation
Hello, I need to estimate the parameters of a non-linear function simultaneously. I have the logistic function describing the cumulative probability of the observations but I do not know hot to use it in EViews (I have version 5). Can somebody help me? Thank you in advance.
