Manage Experiments
R2026bUse the Experiment Manager app to create computational experiments that run your MATLAB code using a range of parameter values, automatically manage your experiment artifacts, and compare results. Once you create an experiment in Experiment Manager, you can also run the experiment and analyze its results programmatically. To get started, see Explore Parameters Using Simple Computational Experiment. For information about experiments for your AI workflows, see Experiment Manager (Deep Learning Toolbox).
