Class FastGaussian

java.lang.Object

org.cognity.math.functions.FastGaussian

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Function, ParametrizedFunction

public final class FastGaussian
extends Object
implements ParametrizedFunction, Serializable

Fast implementation of the gaussian function which is defined as:

Where is a constant defined by user. The default value is equal to 1.0.
This implementation uses a fast approximation of the exp(x) function. For more information, see this paper.
