Production logistics:
The term is used for describing logistic
processes within an industry. The
purpose of production logistics is to
ensure that each machine and
workstation is being fed with the right
product in the right quantity and
quality at the right point in time.
Logistic regression:
logistic regression is a model used for prediction
of the probability of occurrence of an event. It
makes use of several predictor variables that may
be either numerical or categories. Logistic
regression is used extensively in the medical and
social sciences as well as marketing applications
such as prediction of a customer's propensity to
purchase a product or cease a subscription.
For example, the probability that a person has a heart attack within a specified time period might be predicted from knowledge of the person's age, sex and body mass index.
Extensions:
Extensions of the model cope with multi-category
dependent variables and ordinal dependent variables,
such as polynomial regression. Multi-class
classification by logistic regression is known as
multinomial logit modeling. An extension of the logistic
model to sets of interdependent variables is the
conditional random field.
Logistics map:
The logistic map is a polynomial mapping, often cited
as an archetypal example of how complex, chaotic
behavior can arise from very simple non-linear
dynamical equations. The map was popularized in a
seminal 1976 paper by the biologist Robert May, in
part as a discrete-time demographic model analogous
to the logistic equation first created by Pierre Francois
Verhulst. Mathematically, the logistic map is written
xn is a number between zero and one, and represents the
population at year
n, and hence
x0 represents the initial
population (at year 0)
r is a positive number, and represents a combined rate for
reproduction and starvation.
