Using NLS with a Kappa function
...= data1, : singular gradient I think these error results from the fact that I obtained a good fit with a logistic function and that the Kappa reduces to a logistic in the limit with k -> 0. This causes a problem because the Kappa function has a term raised to (1/k)th power leading the numerical singularlity for low values of k. (Since the logistic function gave a good fit, then I am sure that best fit value for k is very small.) If so, this problem would intractable, but I thought I see what response I got from other users before giving up on this track. Here are a few lines from the command line: &...
