  2. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    The Gudermannian function gives a direct relationship between the circular functions and the hyperbolic functions that does not involve complex numbers. The graph of the function a cosh( x / a ) is the catenary , the curve formed by a uniform flexible chain, hanging freely between two fixed points under uniform gravity.

  3. CORDIC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CORDIC

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...

  4. Inverse hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_hyperbolic_functions

    The argument to the hyperbolic functions is a hyperbolic angle measure. In mathematics, the inverse hyperbolic functions are inverses of the hyperbolic functions, analogous to the inverse circular functions. There are six in common use: inverse hyperbolic sine, inverse hyperbolic cosine, inverse hyperbolic tangent, inverse hyperbolic cosecant ...

  5. Hyperbolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_coordinates

    The hyperbolic coordinates are formed on the original picture of G. de Saint-Vincent, which provided the quadrature of the hyperbola, and transcended the limits of algebraic functions. In 1875 Johann von Thünen published a theory of natural wages [ 1 ] which used geometric mean of a subsistence wage and market value of the labor using the ...

  6. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    Sigmoid functions most often show a return value (y axis) in the range 0 to 1. Another commonly used range is from −1 to 1. A wide variety of sigmoid functions including the logistic and hyperbolic tangent functions have been used as the activation function of artificial neurons.

  7. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    The curve represents xy = 1. A hyperbolic angle has magnitude equal to the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector, which is in standard position if a = 1. In geometry, hyperbolic angle is a real number determined by the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector of xy = 1 in Quadrant I of the Cartesian plane.

  8. Gudermannian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gudermannian_function

    The Gudermannian function is a sigmoid function, and as such is sometimes used as an activation function in machine learning. The (scaled and shifted) Gudermannian function is the cumulative distribution function of the hyperbolic secant distribution. A function based on the Gudermannian provides a good model for the shape of spiral galaxy arms ...

  9. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    This parameter t is the hyperbolic angle, which is the argument of the hyperbolic functions. One finds an early expression of the parametrized unit hyperbola in Elements of Dynamic (1878) by W. K. Clifford. He describes quasi-harmonic motion in a hyperbola as follows:
