Gaussian like function.

# TODO: add a more detailed description.

Parameters:

  • x (any) – Input values to map.

  • a (float | int) – Steepness of the function parameter.

  • b (float | int) – Value of the function’s midpoint.

  • c (float | int) – Scaling parameter.

Returns:

Suitability values.

Return type:

float

Notes

The Gaussian like function is defined as:

\[f(x) = e^{-a(x - b)^c}\]
