Swish

Swish is an activation function, $f(x) = x \cdot \text{sigmoid}(\beta x)$, where $\beta$ a learnable parameter. Nearly all implementations do not use the learnable parameter $\beta$, in which case the activation function is $x\sigma(x)$ ("Swish-1").

The function $x\sigma(x)$ is exactly the SiLU, which was introduced by other authors before the swish. See Gaussian Error Linear Units (GELUs) where the SiLU (Sigmoid Linear Unit) was originally coined, and see Sigmoid-Weighted Linear Units for Neural Network Function Approximation in Reinforcement Learning and Swish: a Self-Gated Activation Function where the same activation function was experimented with later.
