Introduction In this post, I will introduce about an optimization algorithm, logistic regression. In statistics, the logistic model is a statistical model that is usually taken to apply to a binary dependent variable. In regression analysis, logistic regression is estimating the parameters of a logistic model (wikipedia ). I’ll also introduce about the gradient ascent and a its modified version called the stochastic gradient ascent. You can also read this post on CodeProject. Background I have learned from many sources and you can refer to them in the References section. This is summary of my learning. Logistic regression Logistic…
