lsapy.functions.vetharaniam2024_eq10(x, a, b, c)[source]#

Gaussian like function.

This function should be used on Gaussian-like data and allows asymmetric distribution. However, it only works for positive values of x.

Parameters:

  • x (any) – Input values.

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

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

  • c (float | int) – Scaling parameter. Should be a positive number.

Returns:

Output values.

Return type:

float

Notes

Alternative name: VTR24_eq10. The Gaussian like function is defined as:

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