Read the equation

The source expression adds dx times a sigmoid of the current scalar’s weighted value. The body additionally caps the increment magnitude at 0.2 and clips the final value to the unit interval. These two bounds are part of the implemented transition and affect its response to large inputs.

How it works

Read the definition from its right-hand expression to the quantity on the left. Its surrounding source records the intended input, state, or parameter context. Where the source leaves an operation unspecified, this page preserves that gap.

Assumptions & limits

Source recovery establishes that the expression appears in this record. Its mathematical validity, implementation behavior, and interpretation must be assessed separately. See the linked source and research notes for the checks available for this version.
