expit
Compute the standard logistic function.
The standard logistic function, also called the expit function, inverse logit, or sigmoid function, is defined as the logistic function with parameters (k = 1
, x0 = 0
, L = 1
).
Usage
var expit = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/expit' );
expit( x )
Computes the standard logistic function.
var v = expit( 0.0 );
// returns ~0.5
v = expit( 1.0 );
// returns ~0.731
v = expit( -1.0 );
// returns ~0.269
v = expit( Infinity );
// returns 1.0
v = expit( NaN );
// returns NaN
Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var expit = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/expit' );
var x;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = randu();
console.log( 'expit(%d) = %d', x, expit( x ) );
}
C APIs
Usage
#include "stdlib/math/base/special/expit.h"
stdlib_base_expit( x )
Computes the standard logistic function.
double out = stdlib_base_expit( 0.0 );
// returns ~0.5
out = stdlib_base_expit( 1.0 );
// returns ~0.731
The function accepts the following arguments:
- x:
[in] double
input value.
double stdlib_base_expit( const double x );
Examples
#include "stdlib/math/base/special/expit.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void ) {
double x;
double v;
int i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = (double)rand() / (double)RAND_MAX;
v = stdlib_base_expit( x );
printf( "expit(%lf) = %lf\n", x, v );
}
