problem with estimation

[clara]

Hello,

I try to reproduce some results of an estimated DSGE model and I don't know how can I resolve this problem. The error message is :
Error using dynare_estimation_1 (line 81)
Not enough input arguments.
Error in dynare_estimation (line 62)
dynare_estimation_1(var_list,varargin{:});
Error in trigaribyme (line 489)
dynare_estimation(var_list_);
Error in dynare (line 180)
evalin('base',fname) ;


Note that this message is same when I try to reproduce other estimated code available on the dynare exemple page.
Many thanks

This sounds like a path conflict. Please type

Code: Select all

which dynare_estimation_1

into the Matlab command window and check whether this is a Dynare function.

Thank you for your reply,

The error message I get after typing why dynare_estimation_1:

Error using rng (line 125)
First input must be a nonnegative integer seed less than 2^32, 'shuffle', 'default', or generator
settings captured previously using S = RNG.
Error in why (line 10)
dflt = rng(n,'v5uniform');

Sorry. I mistyped. I meant

Code: Select all

which

. I updated the above post.

thank you Johannes,

C:\dynare\4.4.3\matlab\dynare_estimation_1.m

what I have to do with this problem?

Try reinstalling. The header of dynare_estimation_1.m should be

Code: Select all

function dynare_estimation_1(var_list_,dname)

and not

Code: Select all

function dynare_estimation_1(var_list,varargin{:});

Dear Johannes,

When I try to run codes I have this error message, I added estimated_params_init(use_calibration); end; before the estimation command and still have the same message. I have checked the timing for k and n and it seems to be ok. Is there any propostions to fix it?

Thank you !!

Before continuing, make sure your model runs with stoch_simul. There are most likely still several errors. For example, nt in steady state is negative.
