Holder table 2 function

Part of a set of benchmark functions for global optimisation

  • variables: 2
  • interval: [-10,10] (all variables)
  • global minima: (8.05502,9.66459), (-8.05502,9.66459), (8.05502,-9.66459), (-8.05502,-9.66459)
  • minimum value: -19.20850

f(x1,x2)=- abs( sin(x1) cos(x2) exp( abs( 1 - sqrt(x12 + x22) / π ) ) )


The holder table function has four global minima close to the corners of the search space. In addition it has many other local minima, arranged in a regular pattern. The function is separable so in principle it could be minimized by two independent searches in one direction (each of the parameters).
