Please see this topic:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/287124#763615

"And this remark from Alan Weiss:

There is at least one function on the File Exchange that will calculate
the Hessian. See
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/271183#711741

For more information on the quality of Hessians from various solvers and
algorithms, see
