Logistic Regression

Classification

Introduction The problem of classification consists in assigning an observation to the category it belongs. That means, for instance, taking a picture of a handwritten digit and correctly classifying which digit (0-9) it is, matching pictures of faces to whom they belong or classifying the sentiment in a text. In general, when dealing with classification we use supervised learning (when we have an annotated training set from which we can learn our model - as we did up until this point).
