Description

Also known as the “De Jong's function 2” or the “(Rosenbrock) banana/valley function” due to its shape. The global optimum is located within a large flat valley and thus it is hard for optimization algorithms to find it. The following formula underlies the implementation:

f(\mathbf{x}) = ∑_{i=1}^{n-1} 100 \cdot (\mathbf{x}_{i+1} - \mathbf{x}_i^2)^2 + (1 - \mathbf{x}_i)^2.

The domain is given by the constraints \mathbf{x}_i \in [-30, 30], i = 1, …, n.
