samer@4 7 % this gives 'hyperbolic' convergence which is more like
samer@4 8 % a sort of diffusion by Brownian motion. The trick is
samer@4 9 % to add a constant to the inverse of each natural parameter,
samer@4 10 % which is like a temperature or variance. The constant
samer@4 11 % is like a diffusion constant
samer@4 12 %
samer@4 13 % This function supports partial application: if only one
samer@4 14 % argument is supplied, it returns a function handle.
