"""
Implements the SquarePlus activation function.
Parameters:
vector (np.ndarray): The input array for the SquarePlus activation.
beta (float): size of the curved region
Returns:
np.ndarray: The input array after applying the SquarePlus activation.
Formula: f(x) = ( x + sqrt(x^2 + b) ) / 2
Examples:
>>> squareplus(np.array([2.3, 0.6, -2, -3.8]), beta=2)
array([2.5 , 1.06811457, 0.22474487, 0.12731349])
>>> squareplus(np.array([-9.2, -0.3, 0.45, -4.56]), beta=3)
array([0.0808119 , 0.72891979, 1.11977651, 0.15893419])
