Exp-normalize trick — Graduate Descent
timvieira.github.io › blog › postFeb 11, 2014 · Numerically stable sigmoid function The sigmoid function can be computed with the exp-normalize trick in order to avoid numerical overflow. In the case of \(\text{sigmoid}(x)\) , we have a distribution with unnormalized log probabilities \([x,0]\) , where we are only interested in the probability of the first event.
How to calculate a logistic sigmoid function in Python?
https://www.py4u.net/discuss/15207This should do it: import math def sigmoid (x): return 1 / (1 + math.exp(-x)) . And now you can test it by calling: >>> sigmoid(0.458) 0.61253961344091512 Update: Note that the above was mainly intended as a straight one-to-one translation of the given expression into Python code.It is not tested or known to be a numerically sound implementation. If you know you need a very robust ...

For the numerically stable implementation of the sigmoid function, we first need to check the value of each value of the input array and then pass the sigmoid’s value. For this, we can use the np.where () method, as shown in the example code below.
