I am trying to fit two dependent curves like:
y = exp(-(a+b)*x) & z = b/d*exp(-a*x)*(1-exp(-d*x))
with parameters a,b & d but I have the following error message:

(11) Parameter Initialization was called.
(12) ----------Levenberg-Marquardt-----------
Reduced Chi-sqr = --
Iterations Performed = 0
Total Iterations in Session = 0
(13) Fit did not converge - zero or missing weight value is not allowed for chosen weight method.

Anybody any idea?
Thanks!

Hi MRI_aic,

I suspect that the initial values of the parameters, a, b and d are not close enough to lead the convergence, though not sure.

Maybe first you can try to define one-dependent-variable function separately, and make sure each works? Once they work surely, then you can come to the two-dependent-variable function.

Hi,

Looks like you have assigned Weights during fitting, and the data has zero or missing values.

Weighting methods such as Instrumental assign reciprocal weights such as 1/value^2, so if any of the values are 0 or very close to zero, or missing, fitting cannot proceed.
