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 X_i \theta 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.
