how to make the fitness function plot increasing at each generation in matlab

To make the fitness function plot increase at each generation in MATLAB, you will need to define and update a value representing the fitness score of each individual in the population for each generation. Here is a general approach:

  1. Initialize the population with random individuals.
  2. Calculate the fitness score for each individual in the population.
  3. Create a loop that represents generations.
  4. In each generation, update the population based on selection, crossover, and mutation operations.
  5. Recalculate the fitness scores for the updated population.
  6. Plot the maximum fitness score at each generation.

Here is an example code snippet that illustrates this approach:

% Parameters
numGenerations = 100;  % Number of generations
populationSize = 50;  % Population size

% Initialize population
population = rand(populationSize, 1);

% Preallocate arrays to store fitness scores and maximum fitness scores at each generation
fitnessScores = zeros(populationSize, numGenerations);
maxFitnessScores = zeros(1, numGenerations);

for generation = 1:numGenerations
    % Calculate fitness score for each individual in the population
    fitnessScores(:, generation) = population.^2;  % Change this line with your fitness function
    
    % Update the maximum fitness score at the current generation
    maxFitnessScores(generation) = max(fitnessScores(:, generation));
    
    % Update the population (replace this step with your selection, crossover, and mutation operations)
    population = rand(populationSize, 1);  % Replace this line with your update population code
    
    % Plot the maximum fitness score at each generation
    plot(1:generation, maxFitnessScores(1:generation));
    xlabel('Generation');
    ylabel('Maximum Fitness Score');
    title('Fitness Score Improvement');
    drawnow;
end

In this example, the fitness function is set as fitnessScores(:, generation) = population.^2, where population represents the individuals in the population and generation indicates the current generation. You can replace this line with your specific fitness function.

Please note that the code provided is a generic framework. You will need to customize it according to your specific fitness function and genetic algorithm implementation.

By running this code, you should see a plot that shows the maximum fitness score improving at each generation.
