1. Gaussian Error Linear Units (GELUs)

https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.08415

The Gaussian Error Linear Unit (GELU) is a high-performing neural network activation function.

2. PyTorch GELU

https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/generated/torch.nn.GELU.html

classtorch.nn.GELU(approximate='none')

Applies the Gaussian Error Linear Units function.

GELU ( x ) = x ∗ Φ ( x ) \text{GELU}(x) = x * \Phi(x) GELU(x)=x∗Φ(x)

where Φ ( x ) \Phi(x) Φ(x) is the Cumulative Distribution Function for Gaussian Distribution.

When the approximate argument is tanh, Gelu is estimated with:

GELU ( x ) = 0.5 ∗ x ∗ ( 1 + Tanh ( 2 / π ∗ ( x + 0.044715 ∗ x 3 ) ) ) \text{GELU}(x) = 0.5 * x * (1 + \text{Tanh}(\sqrt{2 / \pi} * (x + 0.044715 * x^3))) GELU(x)=0.5∗x∗(1+Tanh(2/π ∗(x+0.044715∗x3)))

Args:

approximate (str, optional) : the gelu approximation algorithm to use: 'none' | 'tanh'. Default: 'none'

Shape:

  • Input: (*), * means any number of dimensions.
  • Output: (*), same shape as the input.

Examples:

m = nn.GELU()
input = torch.randn(2)
output = m(input)
