error: no matching function for call to

[neuronphysics]

I am trying to apply [this POMDP solver with a given example][1] to my decision making problem and I followed the documentation in the repository to build different relevant classes and functions

ParticleUpperBound* StarMazeProblem::CreateParticleUpperBound(string name) const {
if (name == "TRIVIAL" || name == "DEFAULT") {
return new TrivialParticleUpperBound(this);
} else if (name == "MDP") {
return new MDPUpperBound(this, *this);
} else {
cerr << "Unsupported particle lower bound: " << name << endl;
exit(1);
}
}
ScenarioUpperBound* StarMazeProblem::CreateScenarioUpperBound(string name,
string particle_bound_name) const {
ScenarioUpperBound* bound = NULL;
if (name == "TRIVIAL" || name == "DEFAULT") {
bound = new TrivialParticleUpperBound(this);
} else if (name == "LOOKAHEAD") {
return new LookaheadUpperBound(this, *this,
CreateParticleUpperBound(particle_bound_name));

} else if (name == "MDP") {
return new MDPUpperBound(this, *this);
} else {
cerr << "Unsupported base upper bound: " << name << endl;
exit(0);
}
return bound;
}

here I got the following error for the above code:

src/starmaze.cpp:369:49: error: no matching function for call to 'despot::MDPUpperBound::MDPUpperBound(const despot::StarMazeProblem*, const despot::StarMazeProblem&)'

**Update**
Part of my class is defined as

class StarMazeProblem : public DSPOMDP,
public MDP {
private:
std::vector<std::vector<std::vector<State> > > transition_probabilities_; //state, action, [state, weight]
public:
ParticleUpperBound* CreateParticleUpperBound(std::string name = "DEFAULT") const;//?
ScenarioUpperBound* CreateScenarioUpperBound(std::string name = "DEFAULT",
std::string particle_bound_name = "DEFAULT") const;

ScenarioLowerBound* CreateScenarioLowerBound(std::string name = "DEFAULT",
std::string particle_bound_name = "DEFAULT") const;

I tried to follow the examples and [instructions][2]. I can't figure out why I got these error messages.

Since there is no starmaze.cpp in the repo, the problem is entirely in your code.

Are you using git to regularly track your changes to your code?

Has your code ever worked?
If so, the best place to start is with a diff between your last success and what you have now.

src/starmaze.cpp:369:49: error: no matching function for call to 'despot::MDPUpperBound::MDPUpperBound(const despot::StarMazeProblem*, const despot::StarMazeProblem&)
return new MDPUpperBound(this, *this);

Your return statement is calling a constructor for MDPUpperBound() which takes two arguments. You're passing const StarMazeProblem* and const StarMazeProblem& both in namespace despot. Are you sure such a constructor exists?
The compiler is telling you that it can't find such a constructor.
It lists several possibilities. The closest of which is:

../../../include/despot/core/builtin_upper_bounds.h:37:2: note: no known conversion for argument 2 from 'const despot::StarMazeProblem' to 'const despot::StateIndexer&

which is expecting a StateIndexer reference.
