Flexible sigmoid-like function on a bounded interval

  • Developing bioinformatical tools often requires a flexible sigmoid-like function.
  • Existing sigmoids do not fulfill the desired criteria of transforming a bounded interval to a bounded interval.
  • A composition of inner and outer functions can achieve the desired transformation.
  • The resulting bounded sigmoid can be used for soft thresholds, signal enhancement, and weight functions.

New brain chips may bend your mind in strange & troubling ways: Study

  • Neuralink, a neurotech startup founded by Elon Musk, is working on implanting its skull-embedded brain chip in humans.
  • Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are being developed to facilitate direct communication between human brains and external computers for medical use cases such as helping paralyzed people communicate.
  • BCIs are still in their infancy, and there are ethical concerns and potential negative effects to consider, such as dependency on the devices and changes to the sense of self.
  • BCIs have surpassed their early sci-fi depictions and are attracting significant private and military funding for medical and non-medical uses.
