sigmoid
sigmoidal

These are more common in the sigmoid colon, which is a common place for increased pressure.

They are most common in the lower portion of the large intestine (called the sigmoid colon).

The sigmoid curve can be approximated by the step function, as in figure C.

The logistic function is also known as the sigmoid function.

Often the clines take the form of a sigmoid curve.

There is a common model used by theorists, called a sigmoid nonlinearity.

Graphically the function takes values between 0 and 1 and has a sigmoid behavior.

In the sigmoid colon, however, 47% of strictures were malignant.

In circumstances where the topography was not clear, patients received only sigmoid colon infusions.

Some plugs are designed (long, flexible and curved) to penetrate the sigmoid colon.

It has a sigmoid form and runs from behind and above downward and forward.

The sigmoid sinus is more vulnerable to injury.

The type of function that can be used to describe the curve is called a sigmoid function.

White says that to be a clavicle, the specimen should have an S- or sigmoid curie, but it does not.

It is usually covered by sigmoid colon.

These whorls are marked by slightly sigmoid, oblique, axial ribs.

Bleeding from the sigmoid sinus can be difficult to control and can significantly increase operative blood loss.

Grape berries follow a double sigmoid growth curve.

The neck had a pronounced sigmoid curve.

The neural net controller contained 24 hidden sigmoid neurones.

On the sigmoid growth phase in the history of Linsley Pond.

If one connected the maximum current of each drop, a sigmoidal shape would result.

The adult portion is straight or slightly sigmoidal and may be expanded.

Under the logistic model, population growth rate between these two limits is most often assumed to be sigmoidal (Figure 1).

The sigmoidal wave height is often called the Levich current.

Sigmoidal quartz veins have developed in the foot-wall of the thrust.

The growth curves of size versus age were sigmoidal, as seen in majority marine invertebrates.

These are sigmoidal functions (see Figure 2).

It can be approximated from other sigmoidal functions by assigning large values to the weights.

In terms of population growth rate, this produces a sigmoidal curve, which is a familiar sight for ecologists.

In consequence the magnetic moment varies with temperature in a sigmoidal pattern.

Sigmoidal or sigmoid, literally means S-shaped and can refer to:

Hence the curve has a sigmoidal or S-shape.

Probe-target binding can be characterized by sigmoidal dose-response curves with different parameters.

As the pH varies, sigmoidal behavior is observed for the retention of acidic and basic species.

The biotite has aligned itself parallel to sigmoidal shear bands.

Sigmoidal function.

Binary sigmoidal function.

The ventral lobe of the suture is very narrow, with straight, almost parallel or slightly sigmoidal sides.

Radial basis functions have been applied in the area of neural networks where they are used as a replacement for the sigmoidal transfer function.

The sigmoidal lines correspond to a Boltzmann fit to the population mean while parameters fitted to each cell are shown in Table 1.

The brain was slightly sigmoidal (S-shaped), without much expansion of the cerebral hemispheres, more like a crocodile than a bird.

The femur was slightly sigmoidal (S-curved) in lateral view rather than straight as in other sauropods.

Ultrasensitive responses are represented by sigmoidal graphs, which resemble cooperativity.

Continuous neurons, frequently with sigmoidal activation, are used in the context of backpropagation of error.

The solid curved lines are calculated from a sigmoidal binding isotherm using the indicated K m and Hill coefficients.
