Buongiorno,
sto lavorando con model based clustering e dopo aver classificato 15 cluster matlab si è fermato e mi segnala un error Using: out of memory. Come posso configurare matlab in modo tale da poter ottimizzare la memoria?
Le caratteristiche del mio pc sono: Memoria installata (RAM: 4.0 GB (3.0 GB utilizzabile) Tipo sistema: Sistema operativo a 32 bit
Vi ringrazio

Hello,
"Out of memory" errors typically occur because your code is trying to store a single large array, and it will not fit (contiguously) into the system RAM.
Large arrays can be duplicated when either they are passed into functions, and when increasing the size of the array.
The command "pack" can be used to move memory to attempt to increase the amount of contiguous memory is available. Pack only works at commandline.
Ciao.

If you save your data to file instead of letting arrays grow too large, you will be able to run your code "indefinitely".

Thank you for answering me. So, I have to type the command "pack" in the command window , but when?? when I get the error or before running the program??
