Dear all, I used fmincon to solve an optimization problem. Interior-point algorithm was used with TolFun=-4. The question is: Is the results below reasonable (because the objective function is increased rather than decreased), and is TolFun=-4 an acceptable value to find the minimum objective? Thanks for all in advance

Local minimum found that satisfies the constraints.
Optimization completed because the objective function is non-decreasing in feasible directions, to within the selected value of the function tolerance, and constraints are satisfied to within the default value of the constraint tolerance.

You must not only look at the "f(x)"-column, but also at the "feasibility" column.
What is a "solution" good for if it is not feasible ?
Best wishes
Torsten.

Thanks for your response, I understand your explanation, but when I tried to increase TolFun=-5, I get different exitflag (2) and different message and the results is shown below. Can you suggest any thing to increase the possibility to change the exit message from (Local minimum possible. Constraints satisfied minimum ) to (Local minimum found that satisfies the constraints.)
