Optimization with MATLAB and the Genetic Algorithm and Direct Search Toolbox

M-files used in the webinar held on September 16, 2004.

You are now following this Submission

M-files accompanying the " Genetic Algorithms & New Optimization Methods in MATLAB " webinar.
These files provide what you need to run the two demos: Optimization of non-smooth objective function, and Optimization of a random stochastic objective function.

To run the first demo run the file 'nonSmoothOpt.m'.

To run the second demo run the file 'PSdemo.m'.

The first demo is also used in the MATLAB digest article titled 'Optimization with MATLAB and the Genetic Algorithm and Direct Search Toolbox'.
