Estimates the location and scale parameters of the logistic distribution by maximum likelihood estimation.
logistic1(llocation = "identitylink", scale.arg = 1, imethod = 1)
logistic(llocation = "identitylink", lscale = "loge",
ilocation = NULL, iscale = NULL, imethod = 1, zero = "scale")
Parameter link functions applied to the location parameter \(l\)
and scale parameter \(s\).
See Links
for more choices, and

for more information.
Known positive scale parameter (called \(s\) below).

An object of class "vglmff"
(see vglmff-class
).
The object is used by modelling functions such as vglm
,
rrvglm
and vgam
.
The two-parameter logistic distribution has a density that can be written as $$f(y;l,s) = \frac{\exp[-(y-l)/s]}{ s\left( 1 + \exp[-(y-l)/s] \right)^2}$$ where \(s > 0\) is the scale parameter, and \(l\) is the location parameter. The response \(-\infty<y<\infty\). The mean of \(Y\) (which is the fitted value) is \(l\) and its variance is \(\pi^2 s^2 / 3\).
A logistic distribution with scale = 0.65
(see dlogis
)
resembles
dt
with df = 7
;
see logistic1
and studentt
.
logistic1
estimates the location parameter only while
logistic
estimates both parameters.
By default,
\(\eta_1 = l\) and \(\eta_2 = \log(s)\) for
logistic
.
logistic
can handle multiple responses.
