I am fitting histograms with the Log-Liklihood fitting method. I am generating data sets that should represent the same physical phenomenon (radioactive decay in my case). The only thing that changes between the data sets are the statistical fluctuations of the random number generating I use. Despite this, some data sets fail to minimize while others converge. Is it possible to get more information on why specifically the minimization is failing? Additionally, is it possible to set my own condition on when a fit fails.
By the way, I have already set the max iterations and function calls a fit can do by running the code.
