STK_TESTFUN_HARTMAN3 computes the "Hartman3" function The Hartman3 function is a test function in dimension 3, which is part of the famous Dixon & Szego benchmark [1] in global optimization. It is usually minimized over [0, 1]^3. HISTORICAL REMARKS This function belongs to a general class of test functions introduced by Hartman [2], hence the name. The particular set of coefficients used in the definition of the "Hartman3" function, however, seems to have been introduced by [1]. GLOBAL MINIMUM According to [5], the function has one global minimum at x = [0.1, 0.55592003, 0.85218259]. The corresponding function value is: f(x) = -3.862634748621772. A slightly lower value is attained [4] at x = [0.114614 0.554649 0.852547]. The corresponding function value is: f(x) = -3.862747199255087 The exact global optimum does not appear to be known.
