By the end of the module, students are expected to:

  • Explain the general intuition behind linear models.
  • Explain the fit and predict paradigm of linear models.
  • Use scikit-learn’s LogisticRegression classifier.
    • Use fit, predict and predict_proba.
    • Use coef_ to interpret the model weights.
  • Explain the advantages and limitations of linear classifiers.
  • Apply scikit-learn regression model (e.g., Ridge) to regression problems.
  • Relate the Ridge hyperparameter alpha to the LogisticRegression hyperparameter C.
