/**
 * The bipolar sigmoid activation function is like the regular sigmoid activation function,
 * except Bipolar sigmoid activation function. TheOutput range is -1 to 1 instead of the more normal 0 to 1.
 * 
 * This activation is typically part of a CPPN neural network, such as 
 * HyperNEAT.
 * 
 * The idea for this activation function was developed by  Ken Stanley, of  
 * the University of Texas at Austin.
