Error

Bits error versus x

Bits error versus y

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if x < -0.00679410591953547 or 0.007789161008371116 < x

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1\]

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{2 \cdot \frac{1}{e^{-2 \cdot x} + 1} - 1}\]

    3. Simplified0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1}\]

    if -0.00679410591953547 < x < 0.007789161008371116

    1. Initial program 58.7

      \[\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(x + \frac{2}{15} \cdot {x}^{5}\right) - \frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3}}\]

    3. Simplified0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{(\left(x \cdot \frac{-1}{3}\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right) + \left((\frac{2}{15} \cdot \left({x}^{5}\right) + x)_*\right))_*}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.0

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -0.00679410591953547:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{2}{e^{-2 \cdot x} + 1} - 1\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \le 0.007789161008371116:\\ \;\;\;\;(\left(\frac{-1}{3} \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right) + \left((\frac{2}{15} \cdot \left({x}^{5}\right) + x)_*\right))_*\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{2}{e^{-2 \cdot x} + 1} - 1\\ \end{array}\]
