Logistic Regression

What is logistic regression?

  • Binary Classifications
  • if you need probabilistic results (probability of output is part of a class)
  • Logistic Loss Functions
  • Multi-class Classifications

Applications?

  • Predicting the probability of a person having a heart attack
  • Predicting the mortality in injured patients
  • Predicting a customer’s propensity to purchase a product or a halt a subscription
  • Predicting the probability of failure given a process or product
  • Predict the likelihood of a homeowner defaulting on a mortgage

Let’s take a look on how logistic regression machine learning algorithm works, and how it updates the parameters with each training step. We compare it with Linear Regression. center
