1-Logistic Regression

Logistic regression is a classification algorithm used to predict a binary outcome like spam/not spam or malignant/benign. It models the probability of the outcome being 1 using the logistic function. The parameters are estimated to minimize the cost function, which is optimized using gradient descent. For multi-class problems, logistic regression can be extended to the "one-vs-all" approach, training a separate model for each class.
