The regression problem Friedman 1 as described in Friedman (1991) and Breiman (1996). Inputs are 10 independent variables uniformly distributed on the interval \([0,1]\), only 5 out of these 10 are actually used. Outputs are created according to the formula $$y = 10 \sin(\pi x1 x2) + 20 (x3 - 0.5)^2 + 10 x4 + 5 x5 + e$$
where e is N(0,sd).
