Univariate Logistic Regression

Module Introduction- Logistic Regression

Welcome to the module on ‘Logistic Regression’. In the last module on linear regression, you learnt how a linear regression model can be used to make predictions for continuous variables.

In this module

Now, in this module, you will learn logistic regression, which is a classification model, i.e. it will help you make predictions in cases where the output is a categorical variable.

Since logistic regression is the most easily interpretable of all classification models, it is very commonly used in various industries such as banking, healthcare, etc.
