Dr. James McCaffrey from Microsoft Research presents a complete end-to-end program that explains how to perform binary classification (predicting a variable with two possible discrete values) using ...

The data doctor continues his exploration of Python-based machine learning techniques, explaining binary classification using logistic regression, which he likes for its simplicity. The goal of a ...

As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread across the world, vast amounts of bioinformatics data have been created and analyzed, and logistic regression models have been key to ...

In recent columns we showed how linear regression can be used to predict a continuous dependent variable given other independent variables 1,2. When the dependent variable is categorical, a common ...
