SiLU#

class brainpy.dnn.SiLU(inplace=False)[source]#

Applies the Sigmoid Linear Unit (SiLU) function, element-wise. The SiLU function is also known as the swish function.

\[\text{silu}(x) = x * \sigma(x), \text{where } \sigma(x) \text{ is the logistic sigmoid.}\]

Note

See Gaussian Error Linear Units (GELUs) where the SiLU (Sigmoid Linear Unit) was originally coined, and see Sigmoid-Weighted Linear Units for Neural Network Function Approximation in Reinforcement Learning and Swish: a Self-Gated Activation Function where the SiLU was experimented with later.

Parameters:

inplace (bool) – can optionally do the operation in-place. Default: False

Shape:

  • Input: \((*)\), where \(*\) means any number of dimensions.

  • Output: \((*)\), same shape as the input.

Examples:

>>> import brainpy as bp
>>> import brainpy.math as bm
>>> m = bp.dnn.SiLU()
>>> input = bm.random.randn(2)
>>> output = m(input)
update(input)[source]#

The function to specify the updating rule.

Return type:

TypeVar(ArrayType, Array, Variable, TrainVar, Array, ndarray)
