[5] lists 3D rational approximations, and [6] contains 7S rational minimax approximations to inverf x and inverfc x. The most accurate set of approximations is ...
The inverse error function erfinv is a standard component of mathemat- ical libraries, and particularly useful in statistical applications for convert-.
Finite Series Approximation ... While the inverse error function is defined by an infinite series expansion, the obvious question becomes how many terms does one ...
In a recent installment [1], we discussed and compared some useful approximations to the so-called “error functions” re- lated to the Gaussian random variable, ...
01.12.2014 · Looking at the graph of the inverse error function we observe that it is highly non-linear and is therefore difficult to approximate with a polynomial.
This function is suitable because it is similar to erf (xi). Furthermore, the inverse can easily be determined: >. inverse:= (1/a)*arctanh (xi); (2.2) Note that the Area Tangent, artanh (...), is indicated as arctanh (...) in MAPLE. The best approximation by the hyperbolic tangent is guaranteed by an optimal parameter a which minimizes the L ...
approximation for the error function which is not directly related to those given previously. This new approximation has at least three advantages: it is more ...
