Standard logistic sigmoid function where

A logistic function or logistic curve is a common S-shaped curve sigmoid curve with equation

where

, the value of the sigmoid's midpoint;
, the curve's maximum value;
, the logistic growth rate or steepness of the curve.

For values of in the domain of real numbers from to , the S-curve shown on the right is obtained, with the graph of approaching as approaches and approaching zero as approaches .
