Several models have been proposed to describe germination rates, but most are limited in statistical analysis and biological meaning of indices. Therefore, a mathematical model is proposed to utilize ...

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 ...

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