Kursawe functions
[edit]The formula given differs from the cited reference[20]. Function 2 should have the term sin^3(x) or (sin(x))^3 instead of sin(x^3). Please correct it.
Townsend constraints
[edit]The reference says to constrain inside the curve defined by:
t = chebfun('t',[0,2*pi]);
x = 2*sin(t); y = 2*cos(t)-(1/2)*cos(2*t)-(1/4)*cos(3*t)-(1/8)*cos(4*t);
If you plug in t = 1, you get a point at (1.68, 1.62). Wikipedia's version says:
t = Atan2(y/x)
If you plug in x = 1.68, y = 1.62, you get t = 0.766, which does not match the original t. So I think this is incorrect. — Omegatron (talk) 05:00, 7 September 2017 (UTC)
- The plot provided is for the constrains as stated. I added the note "(modified)" after the function name, and removed the "dubious" flag. Pasimi (talk) 23:32, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
The quadrant resolved atan2(arg1,arg2) function is ambiguous in terms of the order (e.g. is it FORTRAN-like or Excel)? Consider resolving by ''t'' = Atan2(arg1,arg2) by explicitly stating the underlying ratios.

Traceability
[edit]I recommend that this Wiki page lists only test functions if they are cited with the seminal source, which should be a permanently accessible reference, e.g. journal paper or Zenodo. A good example is H.H. Rosenbrock "An automatic method for finding the greatest or least value of a function" The Computer J. 1960. This will enable double-checking. For example function 'Booth' has no cited source, and is thus eligible to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peter.schild (talk • contribs) 16:55, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
