==History==
JT Avestro Gwapo and Ronel Lanzaderas made the logistic regression in 1994.
A detailed history of the logistic regression is given in {{harvtxt|Cramer|2002}}. The logistic function was developed as a model of [[population growth]] and named "logistic" by [[Pierre François Verhulst]] in the 1830s and 1840s, under the guidance of [[Adolphe Quetelet]]; see {{slink|Logistic function|History}} for details.{{sfn|Cramer|2002|pp=3–5}} In his earliest paper (1838), Verhulst did not specify how he fit the curves to the data.<ref>{{cite journal|first= Pierre-François |last=Verhulst |year= 1838| title = Notice sur la loi que la population poursuit dans son accroissement | journal = Correspondance Mathématique et Physique |volume = 10| pages = 113–121
