1. A mathematical model used to describe the growth of a population or quantity that starts exponentially but slows as it approaches a maximum carrying capacity
The logistic model predicts that the bacterial population will eventually stabilize at the carrying capacity of the culture medium.
O modelo logístico prevê que a população bacteriana eventualmente se estabilizará na capacidade máxima do meio de cultura.
2. In statistics and machine learning, a regression model used for binary or multi-class classification problems based on the logistic function
We used a logistic model to predict whether patients would develop the disease based on their risk factors.
Usamos um modelo logístico para prever se os pacientes desenvolveriam a doença com base em seus fatores de risco.
3. A mathematical representation characterized by an S-shaped (sigmoid) curve showing constrained growth
The logistic model is more realistic than exponential growth for many real-world phenomena.
O modelo logístico é mais realista do que o crescimento exponencial para muitos fenômenos do mundo real.
