First Derivative of the 5PL Model

$$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{g\,(d - a)\,u}{b\,(1 + u)^{g+1}}$$

Usage

dydx_logistic5(x, a, b, c, d, g)

Arguments

x

Numeric vector. Independent variable (typically log10-concentration).

a

Numeric scalar. Lower asymptote (baseline response).

b

Numeric scalar. Scale parameter (\(b > 0\)); controls steepness.

c

Numeric scalar. Inflection-point location on the x-axis.

d

Numeric scalar. Upper asymptote (saturation response).

g

Numeric scalar. Asymmetry parameter (\(g > 0\)).

Value

Numeric vector of dy/dx values.
