Underflow is a form of rounding error that occurs when a number near zero is rounded to zero.

Underflow

Overflow

This function is used to predict the probabilities of values in a multinoulli distribution. This function must be stabilized against underflow and overflow.

Softmax Function

Conditioning refers to how rapidly the output of a function changes in response to small changes in its input. This sensitivity is quantified by the $$\textbf{condition number}$$, which measures the rate of change of the function as the input varies.
