How to store Data in a MATLAB® data file as a MATLAB dataset object?

Hi Community,

I wanted to apply the MATLAB example for empirical yield curve modelling from the Diebold and Li (2005) model: "Fitting the Diebold Li Model". Unfortunately it is unclear to me how to store the Data (only available as .xml and .xsd). in a MATLAB® data file as a MATLAB dataset object.

I loaded the .xml into matlab and simply saved it as .mat. However Matlab is unable to read the file. I would be really happy, if someone could help me on understanding what is meant by storing the data in a MATLAB® data file/ MATLAB dataset object. (I use R2017b)

Thank you very much,

Rubens

I successfully (R2018b) ran the example of the documentation that you linked to. Did you try it?

"MATLAB dataset object" see dataset, Class: dataset .

"and simply saved it as .mat. However Matlab is unable to read the file" Hard to believe! What did the error message say?

"I loaded the .xml into matlab" did you use the function xmlread()?

Did you inspect the data loaded by

load Data_USYieldCurve
