How to track optimization process?

Hi all,

I am solving a problem using genetic algorithm for the first time. The optimization code has been running for a while, but I am not sure if it is working properly. Is there a way to track the progress of GA optimization in Matlab?

Thank you, Wendy

Probably the best way is to include a plot function in your options. You can also ask for iterative display. Unfortunately, you have to do either or both of those before you call ga.

This video will be beneficial to understand how to track the GA process. This is a sequel of a problem-solving video for the GA optimized PID tuning.
