hello,
I want to use max function in arrayfun function.
I'm not familiar with using matlab in gpu.
My function is
[ maxv , dtree ]= arrayfun(@ GetRandomDecisionTree, rand_vec , rand_label , ClaNum , RandFnum , RandTnum , MinSampleNum , MaxDepth ) ;
and in GetRandomDecisionTree function
function [ DTreeMaxVec DTrees ] = GetRandomDecisionTree( Vec , ClaLabel , ClaNum , RandFnum , RandTnum , MinSampleNum , MaxDepth )
DTreeMaxVec = max(Vec);
end
Vec is matrix 50 * 500 size
but this code has error "Too few arguments supplied to: 'max'. (One supplied, two required.) "
I just want to get DTreeMaxVec 1*500 size, I don't want to use max(a,b).
help me please!

On the GPU, arrayfun supports only the elementwise version of min and max - i.e. the two input argument case. In this case, I think you'll need to call max outside your arrayfun invocation.

Which MATLAB release are you using? Before R2011b there were more limitations on gpu functions

I'm using R2011b.
um.. I have more question . I want to run the Random Forest Tree in gpu. But I confirm that structure is not supported in gpu. Error message is "Struct field access or indexing is not supported." Is it right?

gpu arrays must be numeric or logical, not structures. However a structure (not on the GPU) may contain a gpu array object.
I do not seem to find any documentation about max on GPU.
