I have a function A = X + W .* Y where all of the variables are (M x N) matrices.
I want to minimize sqr(A) over W such that the elements of W follow the equation: W(m,n) = W(m,n-1) + 0.5
I was studying matlab default functions like fminsearch or fmincon, but couldn't actually relate to what I want.
If anybody can please show me the direction.
Thanks

I think this is what you want:
M = 7;
N = 4;
X = rand(M,N);
Y = rand(M,N);
% This makes a matrix that follows your rule for W, because there are only M unique elements with the rule.
W =@(x,n) repmat(x(:), 1, n) + repmat(0:0.5:0.5*(n-1), numel(x), 1);
A =@(x,n) X + W(x,n) .* Y;
y = fminsearch(@(y) norm(A(y, N)), rand(M, 1))
w = W(y, N)
a = A(y, N)
