What Is Optimization Toolbox?

Running a Problem in the Optimization Tool• Click Pause to temporarily suspend the algorithm. To resume thealgorithm using the current iteration at the time you paused, click Resume.• Click Stop to stop the algorithm. The Run solver and view resultswindow displays information for the current iteration at the moment youclicked Stop.Viewing ResultsWhen the algorithm terminates, the Run solver and view results windowdisplays the reason the algorithm terminated. To clear the Run solver andview results window between runs, click Clear Results.To save your work, export the information from optimtool to the MATLABworkspaceortoanM-file. Formoreinformation, see “Importing andExporting Your Work” on page 5-43.Displaying PlotsIn addition to the Run solver and view results window, you can alsodisplay measures of progress while the algorithm executes by generatingplots. Each plot selected draws a separate axis in the figure window. Youcan select a predefined plot function from the Optimization Tool, or you canwrite your own. For more information on what plot functions are available,see “Plot Functions” on page 5-39.Final PointThe Final point updates to show the coordinates of the final point when thealgorithm terminated.5-29
