Answer:
Plotting the relationship between the variables in a Logistic Regression will form a Sigmoid curve
Explanation:
Logistic regression is considered as a linear model because the decision boundary it generates is linear, which can be used for classification purposes.
From the above graph, we can say that if is greater than 0, then the output is 1, else 0.
- Logistic Regression is used to model the relationship between a set of independent variables and a dependent variable.
- Unlike Linear Regression, the dependent variable is categorical, which is why it’s considered a classification algorithm.
Logistic Regression could be used to predict whether:
- An email is spam or not spam
- A tumor is malignant or not
- A student will pass or fail an exam
- I will regret snacking on cookies at 12 am
- The applications listed above are examples of Binomial/Binary Logistic Regression where the target is dichotomous (2 possible values), but you could have more than 2 classes (Multinomial Logistic Regression).
- These classifications are made based on the probabilities produced by the model and some threshold (typically 0.5). E.g. A student is predicted to pass if her probability of passing is greater than 0.5.
The Sigmoid Function
- If we visualize a dataset with binary target variables, we’d get something like this:
There are a couple of reasons why fitting a line might not be a good idea here:
- In Linear Regression, the dependent variable could range from negative inf to positive inf, but we’re trying to predict probabilities which should be between 0 and 1.
- Even if we created some rules to map those out-of-bound values to a label, the classifier would be very sensitive to outliers which would have an adverse effect on its performance.
