  2. Range of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_function

    In mathematics, the range of a function may refer to either of two closely related concepts: the codomain of the function, or. the image of the function. In some cases the codomain and the image of a function are the same set; such a function is called surjective or onto. For any non-surjective function the codomain and the image are different ...

  3. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    t. e. In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [1] The set X is called the domain of the function [2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.

  4. Codomain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codomain

    In mathematics, a codomain or set of destination of a function is a set into which all of the output of the function is constrained to fall. It is the set Y in the notation f: X → Y. The term range is sometimes ambiguously used to refer to either the codomain or the image of a function. A codomain is part of a function f if f is defined as a ...

  5. Image (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_(mathematics)

    Fiber (mathematics) – Set of all points in a function's domain that all map to some single given point. Image (category theory) – term in category theory. Pages displaying wikidata descriptions as a fallback. Kernel of a function – Equivalence relation expressing that two elements have the same image under a function.

  6. Surjective function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surjective_function

    Interpretation for surjective functions in the Cartesian plane, defined by the mapping f : X → Y, where y = f(x), X = domain of function, Y = range of function. Every element in the range is mapped onto from an element in the domain, by the rule f. There may be a number of domain elements which map to the same range element.

  7. Bijection, injection and surjection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bijection,_injection_and...

    It is important to specify the domain and codomain of each function, since by changing these, functions which appear to be the same may have different properties. Injective and surjective (bijective) The identity function id X for every non-empty set X , and thus specifically R → R : x ↦ x . {\displaystyle \mathbf {R} \to \mathbf {R} :x ...

  8. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    A sigmoid function refers specifically to a function whose graph follows the logistic function. It is defined by the formula: In many fields, especially in the context of artificial neural networks, the term "sigmoid function" is correctly recognized as a synonym for the logistic function. While other S-shaped curves, such as the Gompertz curve ...

  9. 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.
