What are the advantages of logistic regression over decision trees?FAQ The answer to "Should I ever use learning algorithm (a) over learning algorithm (b)" will pretty much always be yes. Different learning algorithms make different assumptions…

This is the 2nd part of the series. Read the first part here: Logistic Regression Vs Decision Trees Vs SVM: Part I In this part we’ll discuss how to choose between Logistic Regression , Decision Trees and Support Vector Machines. The most correct ans…

Classification is one of the major problems that we solve while working on standard business problems across industries. In this article we’ll be discussing the major three of the many techniques used for the same, Logistic Regression, Decision Trees…

二分类:Logistic regression 多分类:Softmax分类函数 对于损失函数,我们求其最小值, 对于似然函数,我们求其最大值. Logistic是loss function,即: 在逻辑回归中,选择了 “对数似然损失函数”,L(Y,P(Y|X)) = -logP(Y|X). 对似然函数求最大值,其实就是对对数似然损失函数求最小值. Logistic regression, despite its name, is a linear model for classification…

Logistic Regression and Gradient Descent Logistic regression is an excellent tool to know for classification problems. Classification problems are problems where you are trying to classify observations into groups. To make our examples more concrete,…

逻辑回归(Logistic Regression)是广义线性回归的一种.逻辑回归是用来做分类任务的常用算法.分类任务的目标是找一个函数,把观测值匹配到相关的类和标签上.比如一个人有没有病,又因为噪声的干扰,条件的描述的不够完全,所以可能不确定正确,还希望得到一个概率,比如有病的概率是80%.也即P(Y|X),对于输入X,产生Y的概率,Y可取两类,1或者0. 推导 Sigmod函数 相当于线性模型的计算结果来逼近真实01标记的对数几率. 他的导数: 对数线性模型 概率P的值域是[0,1],线性函数…

Logistic模型和SVM都是用于二分类,现在大概说一下两者的区别 ① 寻找最优超平面的方法不同 形象点说,Logistic模型找的那个超平面,是尽量让所有点都远离它,而SVM寻找的那个超平面,是只让最靠近中间分割线的那些点尽量远离,即只用到那些"支持向量"的样本--所以叫"支持向量机". ② SVM可以处理非线性的情况 即,比Logistic更强大的是,SVM还可以处理非线性的情况.​ ③Logistic regression 和 SVM本质不同在于loss f…

Sigmoid Function \[ \sigma(z)=\frac{1}{1+e^{(-z)}} \] feature: axial symmetry: \[ \sigma(z)+ \sigma(-z)=1 \] gradient: \[ \frac{\partial\sigma(z)}{\partial z} = \sigma(z)[1-\sigma(z)] \] 由性质1 可知, \[ \frac{\partial\sigma(z)}{\partial z} = \sigma(z) \s…
