Description and formulas for the logit function


The logit function (also log odds function) is the inverse of the sigmoid function, which represents values from 0 to 1.

Mathematically, logit is the natural logarithm of the ratio of probability to counterprobability (odds). The logit function is described by the following equations. :

\(\displaystyle sig^{-1}(y)= -ln\left(\frac{1}{y}-1\right)\) \(\displaystyle = ln\left(\frac{y}{1-y }\right)\) \(=2·arctanh(2·y-1)\)

Where \(y\) is the probability. The natural logarithm with base \(e\) is most commonly used.

The logit function is used in logistic regression as a special case of a link function in one generalized linear model used. It is the canonical link function for the Bernoulli distribution¹².

The logit function has diverse applications in data analysis and machine learning, especially in data transformations.
