  Hyperbolic function - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the hyperbolic functions are analogs of the ordinary trigonometric, or circular, functions.
The basic hyperbolic functions are the hyperbolic sine sinh, and the hyperbolic cosine cosh, from which are derived the hyperbolic tangent tanh, etc.
Hyperbolic functions are also useful because they occur in the solutions of some simple linear differential equations, notably that defining the shape of a hanging cable, the catenary.

the hyperbolic sine of z (written sinh z); the hyperbolic cosine of z (cosh z); the hyperbolic tangent of z (tanh z); and the hyperbolic cosecant, secant, and cotangent of z.
The first description of hyperbolic geometry was given in the context of Euclid's postulates, and it was soon proved that all hyperbolic geometries differ only in scale (in the same sense that spheres only differ in size).

If hyperbolic substitution is not part of your curriculum, then skip ahead (unless you're curious) to Partial Fractions, and don't worry, we will cover the methods to integrate the functions that are covered here later on.
And to further contrast the hyperbolic with the trig, note that the trig function, tangent, is unbounded and has undefined points on its domain.
The integrands that the hyperbolic functions address are all analogs of the ones that the trig functions were able to address.

 Hyperbolic function
The hyperbolic functions are analogs of the ordinary trigonometric, or circular, functions.
However, the parameter t should not be interpreted as an angle, and the hyperbolic functions are not periodic.
The function cosh x is always positive, symmetric with respect to the y-axis and satisfies cosh 0 = 1, the function sinh x is symmetric with respect to the origin and hence sinh 0 = 0.

 Tutorial 4
There are four functions supported by the applet: linear, sigmoid, exponential, and hyperbolic tangent.
A hyperbolic tangent function is similar to a sigmoid, but it maps all of its input to [-1,1].
The linear activation function does not suffer from this problem, but since it is not a "squashing" function (the sigmoid and hyperbolic tangent has finite ranges), it also has numerical problems with large training sets as all the sum of squares errors add up to large numbers.
