Abstract
The S-shape curve function with high degree of freedom is proposed based on the analysis of the basic characteristics of the Logistic function, and the S-shape curve function is y=A_2+\fracA_1-A_21+\left(\fracx-x_0\Delta x_1\right)^p_1+\left(\fracx-x_0\Delta x_2\right)^p_2. The characteristic parameters of the function are extreme values of A1 and A2, and the location of extreme value A1 is x0. The shape modulatory parameters of function are Δx1, p1, Δx2 and p2. The conditions assuring the S shape of the function’s curve are A1≠A2, Δx1>0, Δx2>0, p1>1 and p2>1. The functions of the first derivative (the slope of the tangent), the slope of the normal and the second derivative of the modulatory Logistic function are derived.
