In this paper, we are going to discuss the logistic model of predicting the population and its historical applications on the size of US population. Population of the United States is the total number of people living in the United States with US citizenship. Population projection is the estimation of the future size of the population. Section I will mention the official source and relating background about the size of US population. Section II will address why population projection is important. Section III will briefly go over exponential population model which had great influence on the invention of logistic population model. Section IV will focus on logistic model and its derivations. Section V will discuss some historical application of logistic model. Section VI includes citations.

Introduction

In this paper, we are going to discuss the logistic model of predicting the population and its historical applications on the size of US population. Population of the United States is the total number of people living in the United States with US citizenship. Population projection is the estimation of the future size of the population.

  1. Background of Population Section I will mention the official source and relating background about the size of US population.
  2. Importance of population projection Section II will address why population projection is important.
  3. Before logistic model Section III will briefly go over exponential population model which had great influence on the invention of logistic population model.
  4. Logistic Models Section IV will focus on logistic model and its derivations.
  5. Failure of the models Section V will discuss some historical application of logistic model.
  6. Reference Section VI includes citations.
