optimtool
Select solver and optimization options, run problems
optimtool warns that it will be removed in a future
release.
Note
The Optimization app warns that it will be removed in a future release, because it is based on technology that is maintained minimally.
Syntax
optimtool
optimtool(optstruct)
optimtool('solver')
Description
optimtool opens the Optimization app. Use
the Optimization app to select a solver, optimization options, and run problems. See
Optimization App for a
complete description of the Optimization app.
The Optimization app can be used to run any Optimization
Toolbox™ solver except intlinprog, and any Global
Optimization Toolbox solver except GlobalSearch and
MultiStart. Results can be exported to a file
or to the MATLAB® workspace as a structure.
optimtool(optstruct) starts the
Optimization app and loads optstruct.
optstruct can be either optimization options or an
optimization problem structure. Create optimization options with the
optimoptions or optimset function, or
by using the export option from the Optimization app. Create a problem structure by
exporting the problem from the Optimization app to the MATLAB workspace. If you have Global Optimization
Toolbox, you can create a problem structure for fmincon,
fminunc, lsqnonlin, or
lsqcurvefit using the createOptimProblem function.
optimtool('solver') starts the
Optimization app with the specified solver, identified as a character vector, and
the corresponding default options and problem fields. All Optimization
Toolbox and Global Optimization
Toolbox solvers are valid inputs to the optimtool
function, except for intlinprog, GlobalSearch, and MultiStart.
