fmincon is giving better results than ga for a nonlinear constrained optimization problem.

I used fmincon and ga for the same nonlinear constrained optimization (7-300 variables) but fmincon is giving much better results (all ceq<10^-8) while ga is not able to satisfy equality constraints. Help please.
Also: fmincon results vary with initial guess, step tolerance and constraint tolerance. What step tolerance and constraint tolerance should i choose?

What help is required? If fmincon responds better to the problem, why not just use that instead?

The ga function produces its best results if you override the default population matrix with one of your own. I always use an options structure similar to:
PopSz = 500;
Parms = 6;
opts = optimoptions('ga', 'PopulationSize',PopSz, 'InitialPopulationMatrix',randi(1E+4,PopSz,Parms)*1E-3, 'MaxGenerations',2E3, 'PlotFcn',@gaplotbestf, 'PlotInterval',1);
where ‘PopSz’ is the size (dimension 1) of the population matrix, and ‘Parms’ (dimension 2) is the number of parameters to optimise. It takes a bit longer, however it almost always converges successfully, if a solution exists. I use randi to more efficiently control the range of the random matrix.
