Dear Wayne,

We have an idea of what the problem might be and will look into it soon.

Cheers,

Subject: [Freesurfer] kvlGEMSMatlab error: search direction is not a descent direction

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,


I'm attempting to run longitudinal segmentation of hippocampal subfields by using the development version of FreeSurfer, but for some of my subjects I get the following error:
 
*******************
 Global iteration 3
*******************
 
   ***** Estimating subject-specific atlas *****
L-BFGS
Verbose: 0
MaximalDeformationStopCriterion: 1e-10

Error using kvlGEMSMatlab

Error in kvlStepOptimizer (line 11)
Error in SegmentSubfieldsT1Longitudinal (line 1169)


Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this one?

1) FreeSurfer version: freesurfer-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-dev-20180426
2) Platform: CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)
3) uname -a: Linux bcmhari-hpc12 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 19 22:10:57 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux



Thanks,
