Dear All,
i am using Genetic Algorithm throught optimization toolbox. my optimization problem is little complicated as a lot of dependent variables are to be calculated, and they are defined on five m.files.
i want to show the calculations steps on detailes that are done on each trail of optimization process. this is important for me to understand how the algorithm think and do what before what and how it transfere from one file to another, so, i can adjust my code. if it possible, how can i do that.
what i want is not the general steps of Genetic Algorithm, i want to show the steps actualy performed by my code after i run it.
thank you a lot.

At the beginning, in order to create the initial simplex, for continuous variables the code uses something like:
if lower bound is in effect
LB = lowerbound
else
LB = zeros(1, nvars);
end
F = zeros(1,nvars+1);
F(1) = objective(LB);
for K = 1 : nvars
lb = LB;
lb(K) = lb(K) + 0.1;
F(K+1) = objective(lb);
end
This takes an initial point and then evaluates nvars more times, each time varying exactly one of the parameters a small distance away from the initial point.
For discrete variables it would uses the minimum discrete values for LB and modify each in turn to its second valid discrete value.

The ga function essentially takes a population of possible parameter vectors and ‘evolves’ them so that the set that produces the lowest value of the fitness function is the eventual best individual. It tests every member of the population with the fitness function to do this.
I doubt that anything in the code for your fitness function changes significantly except with respect to the results dependent on the parameters, and those you can simulate with any set of parameters.
Likely the closest you can get to doing what you want and seeing what the ga function is doing is to use an options structure and write your own OutputFcn to return what you want. See Output Function Options and Custom Output Function for Genetic Algorithm for details.
I leave the rest to you!
