Above is my attempt at a minimization problem. The first term in the sum is a distance minimizer with E being a matrix of values that I calculated prior to running cvx. The later term is like a “gradient” for U. The error that Matlab is spitting out is:
Disciplined convex programming error:
Cannot perform the operation: {real affine} .* {convex}
However, all the values I am multiplying are not vectors? I am not sure whats going on here. I know the code is not very efficient, I am still trying to figure out how to write everything in matrix notation with the use of for loops but this is the problem I have now. Please any feedback is appreciated! Am very desperate!
As a side note, these matrices are pretty big and I was wondering if there was a way for cvx to stop after a certain amount of time or to have it spit out how long its taking (using tic and toc?)
