Sine Function from Currin et al. (1988)#

import uqtestfuns as uqtf
The function is a simple one-dimensional, scalar-valued test function. It was featured in [CMMY88] as an example introducing Gaussian process metamodeling method.
A plot of the function is shown below..
Note
In the original paper, the function was evaluated at \(x = \{ 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00 \}\) to serve as the training data; these points are shown in the above plot.
Test function instance#
To create a default instance of the test function:
my_testfun = uqtf.CurrinSine()
Check if it has been correctly instantiated:
print(my_testfun)
