Todo:

build a sigmoid wrapper function? so that one can combine any function f(x) with an sigmoidal output s(f(x)).

Function Documentation

def CompoundPye.src.Components.transfer_functions.identity	(		x,
			gain = 1.0
	)

Linear function that can be used as a Component's transfer function.

Returns

x*gain == input times gain

def CompoundPye.src.Components.transfer_functions.power_law	(		x,
			a,
			b = 1,
			c = 0,
			d = 0
	)

Power law that can be used as a Component's transfer function.

Returns

Output produced by the power law defined through b*x^a+c.

def CompoundPye.src.Components.transfer_functions.quadratic	(		x,
			a = 1,
			b = 0
	)

Quadratic function that can be used as a Component's transfer function.

Returns

output of the quadratic function (a*x^2+b)
