I think you’ve answered your own question. Apparently, plot_mpc() uses the mdscale() function from MATLAB’s Statistics Toolbox, and Octave’s statistics toolbox has not (yet) implemented that function.
So there are two options … (1) work on implementing the mdscale() function, or (2) adapt plot_mpc() to avoid using mdscale(). I’m not familiar enough with either to know which is the simpler approach. As you may know, plot_mpc() was developed by Paul Cuffe <paul.cu...@ucd.ie <mailto:paul.cu...@ucd.ie>> . You might try contacting him directly to see if he has suggestions about the simplest way to make plot_mpc() usable under Octave. Also, could I ask you to please create a “plot_mpc() is not Octave-compatible” issue on the MATPOWER Extras issue tracker <https://github.com/MATPOWER/matpower-extras/issues> and post any updates there?
