A variable undergoing logistic growth initially grows exponentially. After some time, the rate of growth decreases and the function levels off, forming a sigmoid, or s-shaped curve. For example, an ...

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society. Series C (Applied Statistics) A discrete alternative to the logistic growth function is derived by forming the difference equation corresponding to the ...

A reparametrization of the two-parameter logistic growth function is given which, for independent homoscedastic normally distributed error terms, yields maximum ...

Understanding biological range expansions and invasions is of great ecological and economical interest. Importantly, spatial dynamics can be deeply affected by rapid evolution depending on the ...
