StatQuest: Logistic Regression

Logistic regression is a traditional statistics technique that is also very popular as a machine learning tool. In this StatQuest, I go over the main ideas so that you can understand what it is and how it is used.

I'm currently pursuing MS in data science at a top-5 university in the US, but I did not find materials that explain logistic regression so clearly in such short space, and that managed to connect several related concepts together. Thank you for doing this!

    Way too many materials pontificate. "Consider a perpendicular set of data that is in concordance with the average to a set variance within a dataset that has parametric properties" Translation: "Here are residuals on data normally distributed". It is actually quite shocking how many "advanced topics" when properly broken down and disseminated aren't nearly as difficult to learn.

    Here are the videos that follow up on this one. This video explains how the coefficients should be interpreted: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qIJpxbCHYpCuh6g.html This is how the coefficients are determined: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dJp_w9ClYcS5d5M.html This is how you calculate R-squared and p-values for logistic regression: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qqx6u9SoaLTbiKQ.html This next video is optional, but explains the concept of a saturated model and deviance statistics: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a4hk2c6ElMjdZqw.html Lastly I have a video on deviance residuals: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fHdpmMyMYsq8hag.html The good news is that multinomial logistic regression is very similar to normal logistic regression. For example, if you have 3 possible outcomes (instead of 2, which is what you normally have), you simply look at the log ratio of the probability of the first option compared to the probability of the third option. Then you look at the log ratio of the probability of the second option compared to the probability of the third option. These ratios will tell you which option to to pick. More good news is that I will be making videos to explain "regularization", which is a method used to solve for the maximum likelihood estimates for multinomial logistic regression.

    NO!!! It's not discrete. As said in video, its modeled by some sigmoid function, which has the property of giving output between 0 and 1 which is how probability is considered. You discretize it by saying values over some value of this sigmoid will be considered true/false. Triple BAM ! :(

    Can't it be both though? Surely some outcomes are truly discrete - e.g. using alcohol consumption amounts to predict death. You could argue that being unconscious or in a coma are part of that scale but really you are dead or you aren't. Just like if a tumor is malignant or not, some tumors may spread faster than others but a tumor is either malignant or benign, not kind-of malignant but we'll just call it benign. I'm not an expert but that's how I thought of logistic regression (along with the classic examples of pass/fail a test which I agree is not really discrete, you've just arbitrarily set a cut off point on a continuous range of test scores).

    @@sabrina76569 What you say is true - there are lots of outcomes that are truly discrete - and the last part of what you wrote is key - that you need some arbitrary cutoff to make an ultimate decision about dead/not dead sorts of things. Logistic Regression, along with all those other binary tests, first gives you a probability that one of those two things is true. Then you see if that probability is above/below a threshold. If above, then "dead", if below, "not dead".
