The Kaniadakis Logistic distribution (also known as κ-Logisticdistribution) is a generalized version of the Logistic distribution associated with the Kaniadakis statistics. It is one example of a Kaniadakis distribution. The κ-Logistic probability distribution describes the population kinetics behavior of bosonic () or fermionic () character.[1]

Definitions[edit]

Probability density function[edit]

The Kaniadakis κ-Logistic distribution is a four-parameter family of continuous statistical distributions, which is part of a class of statistical distributions emerging from the Kaniadakis κ-statistics. This distribution has the following probability density function:[1]

valid for , where is the entropic index associated with the Kaniadakis entropy, is the rate parameter, , and is the shape parameter.

The Logistic distribution is recovered as

Cumulative distribution function[edit]

The cumulative distribution function of κ-Logistic is given by

valid for . The cumulative Logistic distribution is recovered in the classical limit .

Survival and hazard functions[edit]

The survival distribution function of κ-Logistic distribution is given by

valid for . The survival Logistic distribution is recovered in the classical limit .

The hazard function associated with the κ-Logistic distribution is obtained by the solution of the following evolution equation:

with , where is the hazard function:

The cumulative Kaniadakis κ-Logistic distribution is related to the hazard function by the following expression:

where is the cumulative hazard function. The cumulative hazard function of the Logistic distribution is recovered in the classical limit .
