Several different sigmoid functions are implemented, including a wrapper function, SoftMax preprocessing and inverse functions.
The stable version can be installed from CRAN using:
install.packages('sigmoid')
The development version, to be used at your
peril, can be installed from GitHub using the
remotes
package.
if (!require('remotes')) install.packages('remotes')
::install_github('bquast/sigmoid') remotes
Following installation, the package can be loaded using:
The sigmoid()
function returns the sigmoid value of the
input(s), by default this is done using the standard logistic
function.
library(sigmoid)
sigmoid(3)
#> [1] 0.9525741
Inputs can also be tensors, such as vectors, matrices, or arrays.
sigmoid(-5:5)
#> [1] 0.006692851 0.017986210 0.047425873 0.119202922 0.268941421 0.500000000
#> [7] 0.731058579 0.880797078 0.952574127 0.982013790 0.993307149
sigmoid( matrix(-3:5,nrow=3) ) # etc.
#> [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,] 0.04742587 0.5000000 0.9525741
#> [2,] 0.11920292 0.7310586 0.9820138
#> [3,] 0.26894142 0.8807971 0.9933071
The sigmoid()
function is a wrapper, which by default
uses the logistic()
function, it can also use other
methods.
sigmoid( -5:5, method='Gompertz' )
#> [1] 3.507389e-65 1.942338e-24 1.892179e-09 6.179790e-04 6.598804e-02
#> [6] 3.678794e-01 6.922006e-01 8.734230e-01 9.514320e-01 9.818511e-01
#> [11] 9.932847e-01
These functions can also be accessed directly.
logistic(1:5)
#> [1] 0.7310586 0.8807971 0.9525741 0.9820138 0.9933071
Gompertz(-1:-5)
#> [1] 6.598804e-02 6.179790e-04 1.892179e-09 1.942338e-24 3.507389e-65
These mappings are similar but not identical.
library(ggplot2)
= -5:5
input
= data.frame(input, logistic(input), Gompertz(input))
df
ggplot(df, aes(input, logistic(input))) + geom_line() +
geom_line(aes(input,Gompertz(input)), colour='red')
