That traceback looks really short to me, as if MATLAB had barely started up, instead of being generated part-way through a calculation.

MATLAB crashes create a crash dump file (like the one you listed). I believe those files are automatically sent to the Mathworks, though you may have to approve the transmission to them. Once they get the crash dump file, they will respond by email. Unfortunately (in my case) you usually get that it was caused by an unknown issue.

If you want, you can upload your data and source code files here, and any other required files (such as data files or DLLs), and see if any of us can reproduce the crash.

Does your data analysis depend on any custom binary files, such as a DLL?

If you want immediate help, you can call them on the telephone and ask for technical support, though I'd first try to upgrade to R2024b first to see if that solves the problem.

If you're doing telephone support, they will first ask if they can drive your computer remotely to observe the problem. If they can't fix it then, then they will ask you to send all required files to them for them to investigate offline, and then they'll get back to you with the results of their investigation
