F23: Shekel 10 Function (F23)

Description

A multimodal test function from the Shekel family with 10 local minima. Fixed dimension of 4.

Usage

F23(x)

Value

Numeric scalar representing the function value.

Arguments

x

Numeric vector of length 4 (4-dimensional input).

Details

Formula: $$f(x) = -\sum_{i=1}^{10} \frac{1}{(x - a_i)^T(x - a_i) + c_i}$$

where \(a_i\) are 4-dimensional vectors and \(c_i\) are scalars.

Global minimum: \(f(4, 4, 4, 4) \approx -10.5364\)

Characteristics:

• Type: Multimodal

• Separable: No

• Differentiable: Yes

• Fixed dimension: 4

• Number of local minima: 10

• Default bounds: \([0, 10]^4\)

The Shekel 10 function is the most challenging of the Shekel family due to having the most local minima.

Examples

F23(c(4, 4, 4, 4))  # Returns approximately -10.54 (near global minimum)
F23(c(0, 0, 0, 0))  # Returns a value close to 0
