  2. Exponential decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_decay

    Symbolically, this process can be expressed by the following differential equation, where N is the quantity and λ is a positive rate called the exponential decay constant, disintegration constant, [1] rate constant, [2] or transformation constant: [3]

  3. Exponential distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution or negative exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the distance between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate; the distance parameter could be any meaningful mono-dimensional measure of the process, such as time ...

  4. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  6. Exponentially modified Gaussian distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentially_modified...

    A Gaussian minus exponential distribution has been suggested for modelling option prices. [20] If such a random variable Y has parameters μ , σ , λ , then its negative -Y has an exponentially modified Gaussian distribution with parameters -μ , σ , λ , and thus Y has mean μ − 1 λ {\displaystyle \mu -{\tfrac {1}{\lambda }}} and variance ...

  7. Exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

    If a variable's growth or decay rate is proportional to its size—as is the case in unlimited population growth (see Malthusian catastrophe), continuously compounded interest, or radioactive decay—then the variable can be written as a constant times an exponential function of time.

  8. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    First order LTI systems are characterized by the differential equation + = where τ represents the exponential decay constant and V is a function of time t = (). The right-hand side is the forcing function f(t) describing an external driving function of time, which can be regarded as the system input, to which V(t) is the response, or system output.
