distr6 (version 1.6.9)

Sigmoid: Sigmoid Kernel

Description

Mathematical and statistical functions for the Sigmoid kernel defined by the pdf, $$f(x) = 2/\pi(exp(x) + exp(-x))^{-1}$$ over the support \(x \in R\).

Arguments

Super classes

distr6::Distribution -> distr6::Kernel -> Sigmoid

Public fields

name

Full name of distribution.

short_name

Short name of distribution for printing.

description

Brief description of the distribution.

Methods

Public methods

Method new()

Creates a new instance of this R6 class.

Usage

Sigmoid$new(decorators = NULL)

Arguments

decorators

(character()) Decorators to add to the distribution during construction.

Method pdfSquared2Norm()

The squared 2-norm of the pdf is defined by $$\int_a^b (f_X(u))^2 du$$ where X is the Distribution, \(f_X\) is its pdf and \(a, b\) are the distribution support limits.

Usage

Sigmoid$pdfSquared2Norm(x = 0, upper = Inf)

Arguments

x

(numeric(1)) Amount to shift the result.

upper

(numeric(1)) Upper limit of the integral.

Method variance()

The variance of a distribution is defined by the formula $$var_X = E[X^2] - E[X]^2$$ where \(E_X\) is the expectation of distribution X. If the distribution is multivariate the covariance matrix is returned.

Usage

Sigmoid$variance(...)

Arguments

...

Unused.

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

Sigmoid$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Details

The cdf and quantile functions are omitted as no closed form analytic expressions could be found, decorate with FunctionImputation for numeric results.
