STK: a Small (Matlab/Octave) Toolbox for Kriging
 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].
