Difference between logit regression and logistic neuron

What is the difference between a logistic neuron in a neural net and a logit regression?

  1. They both follow the Sigmoid function plotted below

Here is the R Code for reasons of reproducibility

f <- function(x) {
   1 / (1 + exp(-x))
}

curve(f, xlim = c(-6,6), ylim= c(-0.5,1.5), main = "Sigmoid function", col.main = "red")

enter image description here

  1. They are both binary classifiers
  2. Both classifiers are symmetric and give the same output for the same input.

But what is the difference between the two?
