Logistic Regression
Logistic Regression
Anita Shirol
Introduction
It maps any real value into another value within a range of 0 and 1. o The
value of the logistic regression must be between 0 and 1, which cannot go
beyond this limit, so it forms a curve like the “S” form.
The S-form curve is called the Sigmoid function or the logistic function.
The logistic regression model transforms the linear regression function continuous
value output into categorical value output using a sigmoid function, which maps any
real-valued set of independent variables input into a value between 0 and 1. This
function is known as the logistic function.
Let the independent input features be:
