You are being over-optimistic with your starting values, and/or with constrains
on the parameter space.
Your fit is diverging in sigma for some reason known only to
nonlinear-optimizer gurus...
For me, it works either to put in an explicit constraint or to reparametrize
with log(sigma).

such that hat(y_i) = f(x_i) + epsilon_i, with the epsilon_i

Hello,
I am struggling for some time now to estimate AR(1) process for commodity price

The equation I want to estimate is: p(t)=a+b*p(t-1)+error
Using STATA I get 0.92 for a, and 0.73 for b.
