To make things clearer, Multinest doesn't seem to be able to generate all the live points, so it never gets to the minimization part.
After @therob762 and I investigated this issue more, we found the v2err
field in the data file contained -1
values. This resulted in SIMTOI sending NAN
values to MultiNest which, in turn, caused the solution not to progress. In fbbc25effa5abf0466cbfa58b2749e63c197df13 I pulled in an updated version of ccoifits
which tests for -1
in the error field and (silently) sets flags in the error column. This is now fixed in the develop branch. Be sure to do a git pull
and git submodule update
to get the revised version of ccoifits
I have attached the .json file of the 256x256 model I was running on the attached data file. In short, this is a single starspot on the surface of a rapid rotator where multinest is run to find the polar radius, the power-law limb darkening coefficient, and the four starspot parameters. This is the output when I first start the model:
I let the code run for over 12 hours and the only output that was generated is when I exit SIMTOI. This is the output upon exit:
Multinest seemed to be running the entire time, however just prior to exiting it didn't seem any closer to the solution than when it began.
Okay, so I can't attach the .json file, but here is the text:
