The Gaussian Peak family of functions is quickly integrated analytically, to high precision. In its two-dimensional form, as shown in the plot above, the function shows a distinct two-dimensional ...

The Sphere function has d local minima except for the global one. It is continuous, convex and unimodal. The plot shows its two-dimensional form. The function is usually evaluated on the hypercube x i ...

In addition, we derive a novel mathematical proof that shows that our proposed likelihood function follows a Gaussian distribution. Based on this information, we develop robust approximations for the ...
