This is a large set of test functions, which may be used to test the effectiveness of global optimization algorithms. Some are rather easy to optimize (rosenbruck, leon, ...), others next to impossible (crosslegtable, bukin6, ...).All the test-functions are taken from either [1], [2] or [3] (see...
