% function [fval,cost_flag,ys,trend_coeff,info] = dsge_posterior_kernel(xparam1,gend,data,data_index,number_of_observations,no_more_missing_observations)
% Evaluates the posterior kernel of a dsge model.
%
% INPUTS
% xparam1 [double] vector of model parameters.
% gend [integer] scalar specifying the number of observations.
% data [double] matrix of data
% data_index [cell] cell of column vectors
% number_of_observations [integer]
% no_more_missing_observations [integer]
% OUTPUTS
% fval : value of the posterior kernel at xparam1.
% cost_flag : zero if the function returns a penalty, one otherwise.
% ys : steady state of original endogenous variables
% trend_coeff :
% info : vector of informations about the penalty:
% 41: one (many) parameter(s) do(es) not satisfied the lower bound
% 42: one (many) parameter(s) do(es) not satisfied the upper bound
