  2. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote

    If y=c is a horizontal asymptote of f(x), then y=c+k is a horizontal asymptote of f(x)+k; If a known function has an asymptote, then the scaling of the function also have an asymptote. If y=ax+b is an asymptote of f(x), then y=cax+cb is an asymptote of cf(x) For example, f(x)=e x-1 +2 has horizontal asymptote y=0+2=2, and no vertical or oblique ...

  3. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    A wide variety of sigmoid functions including the logistic and hyperbolic tangent functions have been used as the activation function of artificial neurons. Sigmoid curves are also common in statistics as cumulative distribution functions (which go from 0 to 1), such as the integrals of the logistic density , the normal density , and Student's ...

    The following MATLAB code will plot the root locus of the closed-loop transfer function as varies using the described manual method as well as the rlocus built-in function: % Manual method K_array = ( 0 : 0.1 : 220 ). ' ; % .' is a transpose.

  5. Asymptotic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_analysis

    The function f(n) is said to be "asymptotically equivalent to n 2, as n → ∞". This is often written symbolically as f ( n ) ~ n 2 , which is read as " f ( n ) is asymptotic to n 2 ". An example of an important asymptotic result is the prime number theorem .

  6. 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.

  7. Method of moving asymptotes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_moving_asymptotes

    The Method of Moving Asymptotes functions as an iterative scheme. The key idea behind MMA is to approximate the original non-linear constraints and objective function with a simpler, convex approximation. This approximation is represented by linear constraints and a convex objective function. [2]

  8. Generalised logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalised_logistic_function

    The generalized logistic function or curve is an extension of the logistic or sigmoid functions. Originally developed for growth modelling, it allows for more flexible S-shaped curves. The function is sometimes named Richards's curve after F. J. Richards, who proposed the general form for the family of models in 1959.

  9. Asymptotology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotology

    In physics and other fields of science, one frequently comes across problems of an asymptotic nature, such as damping, orbiting, stabilization of a perturbed motion, etc. . Their solutions lend themselves to asymptotic analysis (perturbation theory), which is widely used in modern applied mathematics, mechanics and phy
