Next, the demo trains a logistic regression model using raw Python, rather than by using a machine learning code library such as Microsoft ML.NET or scikit. [Click on image for larger view.] Figure 1: ...
When training a logistic regression model, there are many optimization algorithms that can be used, such as stochastic gradient descent (SGD), iterated Newton-Raphson, Nelder-Mead and L-BFGS. This ...
In recent columns we showed how linear regression can be used to predict a continuous dependent variable given other independent variables 1,2. When the dependent variable is categorical, a common ...
If the signal to noise ratio is low (it is a ‘hard’ problem) logistic regression is likely to perform best. In technical terms, if the AUC of the best model is below 0.8, logistic very clearly ...
