STK_TESTFUN_BRANINHOO computes the Branin-Hoo function. The Branin-Hoo function (Branin and Hoo, 1972) is a classical test function for global optimization algorithms, which belongs to the well-known Dixon-Szego test set (Dixon and Szego, 1978). It is usually minimized over [-5; 10] x [0; 15]. REFERENCES [1] Branin, F. H. and Hoo, S. K.
