Class Sigmoid

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.commons.math3.analysis.function.Sigmoid

All Implemented Interfaces:

DifferentiableUnivariateFunction, UnivariateDifferentiableFunction, UnivariateFunction

public class Sigmoid
extends Object
implements UnivariateDifferentiableFunction, DifferentiableUnivariateFunction

Sigmoid function. It is the inverse of the logit function. A more flexible version, the generalised logistic, is implemented by the Logistic class.

Since:

3.0
