There is the original version of csminwel and the dynare adaptation. You need to write a wrapping function that RISE will call and the wrapping function in turn will call your version of csminwel.
Here is an example of a wrapping function to be used with the original csminwel.
function [x1,f1,exitflag]=csminwelwrap(fh_handle,x0,lb,ub,options,varargin) % translate the inputs from RISE into inputs for csminwel %-------------------------------------------------------- nx=numel(x0); H0 = 1e-4*eye(nx); crit = 1e-7; nit = options.MaxIter; % using Matlab's MaxIter, which RISE will send analytic_grad=[]; [fh,xh,gh,H,itct,funcCount,retcodeh] = csminwel(... @myobjective,x0,H0,analytic_grad,crit,nit,varargin{:}); % translate the outputs from csminwel into outputs for RISE %---------------------------------------------------------- exitflag=1; x1=xh; f1=fh; function fval=myobjective(x) % RISE expect your optimizer to correctly handle parameter bounds % restrictions. If your optimizer does not, you have to do % something about it yourself as I do in this subfunction. if any(x<lb)||any(x>ub) fval=1e+12; else fval=fh_handle(x,varargin{:}); end end end

Hi Junior, Recently, I have been trying to interface Dynare's csminwel1 to RISE.

When I run this code, the program reports an error. The error content is as follows:

When I'm debugging this code,after debugging the penalty_objective_function,“[fval, info, exit_flag, arg1, arg2] = fcn(x, varargin{:});”,the "fcn function" points to the h_wrapper function,but I know the fh_wrapper function(function[minus_log_post,retcode,max_pen]=fh_wrapper(xtilde)) is called correctly in the estimation_wrappe , so the input and output parameters are obviously not corresponding。
What specific details should I pay attention to when interfaceing Dynare's csminwel1 to RISE?
Looking forward to your reply, thanks in advance.

Hi Junior, I modified the program code according to what you said, and the program run successfully, but the result is different from Dynare. Is there anything you should pay attention to during the initialization? This "epsilon" value, in particular, affected the results very much. The process was used as follows Dynare' result parameters prior mean post. mean 90% HPD interval prior pstdev
beta 0.500 0.0014 0.0011 0.0017 beta 0.2000 delta 0.500 0.5224 0.1983 0.8378 beta 0.2000
Rise' result beta BETA 0.5 0.00140901272969809 0+1598.62057453798i delta BETA 0.5 0.437014490153793 0+5.15433756949308i
Looking forward to your reply, thanks a lot.
