That depends on your usage. If you wanted to say, for example, "There was a dramatic increase in the Stock Market yesterday", then "increase" is being used as a noun.

However, you could also say "Modern automakers are researching ways to increase fuel consumption in cars", then "increase" is used as a verb.
Increase is a verb
