The above neuron model also includes an externally
applied bias term bk . The effect of the bias term is to
increase or lower the net input of the activation function as
shown in figure.

Note:-
1. The sigmoid function is differentiable, where as the
threshold function is not. Differentiability is an
important feature of the neural network theory.
2. As a to , (v k ) 0 to 1 , and it reduces to threshold
function.
3. The logistic function coined its name from the the
transcendental law of logistic growth. Measured in
appropriate units, all growth process are supposed to
be represented by the logistic distribution function
