<h2 id="___sec0">Logistic Regression </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In linear regression our main interest was centered on learning the
|
|
coefficients of a functional fit (say a polynomial) in order to be
|
|
able to predict the response of a continuous variable on some unseen
|
|
data. The fit to the continuous variable \( y_i \) is based on some
|
|
independent variables \( \hat{x}_i \). Linear regression resulted in
|
|
analytical expressions for standard ordinary Least Squares or Ridge
|
|
regression (in terms of matrices to invert) for several quantities,
|
|
ranging from the variance and thereby the confidence intervals of the
|
|
parameters \( \hat{\beta} \) to the mean squared error. If we can invert
|
|
the product of the design matrices, linear regression gives then a
|
|
simple recipe for fitting our data.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Classification problems, however, are concerned with outcomes taking
|
|
the form of discrete variables (i.e. categories). We may for example,
|
|
on the basis of DNA sequencing for a number of patients, like to find
|
|
out which mutations are important for a certain disease; or based on
|
|
scans of various patients' brains, figure out if there is a tumor or
|
|
not; or given a specific physical system, we'd like to identify its
|
|
state, say whether it is an ordered or disordered system (typical
|
|
situation in solid state physics); or classify the status of a
|
|
patient, whether she/he has a stroke or not and many other similar
|
|
situations.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The most common situation we encounter when we apply logistic
|
|
regression is that of two possible outcomes, normally denoted as a
|
|
binary outcome, true or false, positive or negative, success or
|
|
failure etc.

|
|
<p>
|
|
Logistic regression will also serve as our stepping stone towards neural
|
|
network algorithms and supervised deep learning. For logistic
|
|
learning, the minimization of the cost function leads to a non-linear
|
|
equation in the parameters \( \hat{\beta} \). The optimization of the problem calls therefore for minimization algorithms. This forms the bottle neck of all machine learning algorithms, namely how to find reliable minima of a multi-variable function. This leads us to the family of gradient descent methods. The latter are the working horses of basically all modern machine learning algorithms.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We note also that many of the topics discussed here
|
|
regression are also commonly used in modern supervised Deep Learning
|
|
models, as we will see later.

<h2 id="___sec2">Basics </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We consider the case where the dependent variables, also called the
|
|
responses or the outcomes, \( y_i \) are discrete and only take values
|
|
from \( k=0,\dots,K-1 \) (i.e. \( K \) classes).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The goal is to predict the
|
|
output classes from the design matrix \( \hat{X}\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times p} \)
|
|
made of \( n \) samples, each of which carries \( p \) features or predictors. The
|
|
primary goal is to identify the classes to which new unseen samples
|
|
belong.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Let us specialize to the case of two classes only, with outputs
|
|
\( y_i=0 \) and \( y_i=1 \). Our outcomes could represent the status of a
|
|
credit card user that could default or not on her/his credit card
|
|
debt. That is
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
y_i = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & \mathrm{no}\\ 1 & \mathrm{yes} \end{bmatrix}.
|
|
$$

<h2 id="___sec3">Linear classifier </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Before moving to the logistic model, let us try to use our linear regression model to classify these two outcomes. We could for example fit a linear model to the default case if \( y_i > 0.5 \) and the no default case \( y_i \leq 0.5 \).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We would then have our
|
|
weighted linear combination, namely
|
|
$$
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\hat{y} = \hat{X}^T\hat{\beta} + \hat{\epsilon},
|
|
\label{_auto1}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
where \( \hat{y} \) is a vector representing the possible outcomes, \( \hat{X} \) is our
|
|
\( n\times p \) design matrix and \( \hat{\beta} \) represents our estimators/predictors.
|
|

<h2 id="___sec4">Some selected properties </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The main problem with our function is that it
|
|
takes values on the entire real axis. In the case of
|
|
logistic regression, however, the labels \( y_i \) are discrete
|
|
variables. A typical example is the credit card data discussed below here, where we can set the state of defaulting the debt to \( y_i=1 \) and not to \( y_i=0 \) for one the persons in the data set (see the full example below).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
One simple way to get a discrete output is to have sign
|
|
functions that map the output of a linear regressor to values \( \{0,1\} \),
|
|
\( f(s_i)=sign(s_i)=1 \) if \( s_i\ge 0 \) and 0 if otherwise.
|
|
We will encounter this model in our first demonstration of neural networks. Historically it is called the "perceptron" model in the machine learning
|
|
literature. This model is extremely simple. However, in many cases it is more
|
|
favorable to use a ``soft" classifier that outputs
|
|
the probability of a given category. This leads us to the logistic function.
|

<h2 id="___sec5">The logistic function </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The perceptron is an example of a ``hard classification" model. We
|
|
will encounter this model when we discuss neural networks as
|
|
well. Each datapoint is deterministically assigned to a category (i.e
|
|
\( y_i=0 \) or \( y_i=1 \)). In many cases, it is favorable to have a "soft"
|
|
classifier that outputs the probability of a given category rather
|
|
than a single value. For example, given \( x_i \), the classifier
|
|
outputs the probability of being in a category \( k \). Logistic regression
|
|
is the most common example of a so-called soft classifier. In logistic
|
|
regression, the probability that a data point \( x_i \)
|
|
belongs to a category \( y_i=\{0,1\} \) is given by the so-called logit function (or Sigmoid) which is meant to represent the likelihood for a given event,
|
|
$$
|
|
p(t) = \frac{1}{1+\mathrm \exp{-t}}=\frac{\exp{t}}{1+\mathrm \exp{t}}.
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
Note that \( 1-p(t)= p(-t) \).
|
|
The following code plots the logistic function, the step function and other functions we will encounter from here and on.

<h2 id="___sec6">Two parameters </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We assume now that we have two classes with \( y_i \) either \( 0 \) or \( 1 \). Furthermore we assume also that we have only two parameters \( \beta \) in our fitting of the Sigmoid function, that is we define probabilities
|
|
$$
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta}) &= \frac{\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}}{1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}},\nonumber\\
|
|
p(y_i=0|x_i,\hat{\beta}) &= 1 - p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta}),
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
where \( \hat{\beta} \) are the weights we wish to extract from data, in our case \( \beta_0 \) and \( \beta_1 \).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that we used
|
|
$$
|
|
p(y_i=0\vert x_i, \hat{\beta}) = 1-p(y_i=1\vert x_i, \hat{\beta}).
|
|

<!-- !split -->

<h2 id="___sec7">Maximum likelihood </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to define the total likelihood for all possible outcomes from a
|
|
dataset \( \mathcal{D}=\{(y_i,x_i)\} \), with the binary labels
|
|
\( y_i\in\{0,1\} \) and where the data points are drawn independently, we use the so-called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_likelihood_estimation" target="_blank">Maximum Likelihood Estimation</a> (MLE) principle.
|
|
We aim thus at maximizing
|
|
the probability of seeing the observed data. We can then approximate the
|
|
likelihood in terms of the product of the individual probabilities of a specific outcome \( y_i \), that is
|
|
$$
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
P(\mathcal{D}|\hat{\beta})& = \prod_{i=1}^n \left[p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta})\right]^{y_i}\left[1-p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta}))\right]^{1-y_i}\nonumber \\
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
from which we obtain the log-likelihood and our <b>cost/loss</b> function
|
|
$$
|
|
\mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta}) = \sum_{i=1}^n \left( y_i\log{p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta})} + (1-y_i)\log\left[1-p(y_i=1|x_i,\hat{\beta}))\right]\right).

<h2 id="___sec8">The cost function rewritten </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Reordering the logarithms, we can rewrite the <b>cost/loss</b> function as
|
|
$$
|
|
\mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta}) = \sum_{i=1}^n \left(y_i(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i) -\log{(1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)})}\right).
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The maximum likelihood estimator is defined as the set of parameters that maximize the log-likelihood where we maximize with respect to \( \beta \).
|
|
Since the cost (error) function is just the negative log-likelihood, for logistic regression we have that
|
|
$$
|
|
\mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta})=-\sum_{i=1}^n \left(y_i(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i) -\log{(1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)})}\right).
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
This equation is known in statistics as the <b>cross entropy</b>. Finally, we note that just as in linear regression,
|
|
in practice we often supplement the cross-entropy with additional regularization terms, usually \( L_1 \) and \( L_2 \) regularization as we did for Ridge and Lasso regression.

<h2 id="___sec9">Minimizing the cross entropy </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The cross entropy is a convex function of the weights \( \hat{\beta} \) and,
|
|
therefore, any local minimizer is a global minimizer.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Minimizing this
|
|
cost function with respect to the two parameters \( \beta_0 \) and \( \beta_1 \) we obtain
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\frac{\partial \mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta})}{\partial \beta_0} = -\sum_{i=1}^n \left(y_i -\frac{\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}}{1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}}\right),
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
$$
|
|
\frac{\partial \mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta})}{\partial \beta_1} = -\sum_{i=1}^n \left(y_ix_i -x_i\frac{\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}}{1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_i)}}\right).

<h2 id="___sec10">A more compact expression </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Let us now define a vector \( \hat{y} \) with \( n \) elements \( y_i \), an
|
|
\( n\times p \) matrix \( \hat{X} \) which contains the \( x_i \) values and a
|
|
vector \( \hat{p} \) of fitted probabilities \( p(y_i\vert x_i,\hat{\beta}) \). We can rewrite in a more compact form the first
|
|
derivative of cost function as
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\frac{\partial \mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta})}{\partial \hat{\beta}} = -\hat{X}^T\left(\hat{y}-\hat{p}\right).
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If we in addition define a diagonal matrix \( \hat{W} \) with elements
|
|
\( p(y_i\vert x_i,\hat{\beta})(1-p(y_i\vert x_i,\hat{\beta}) \), we can obtain a compact expression of the second derivative as
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\frac{\partial^2 \mathcal{C}(\hat{\beta})}{\partial \hat{\beta}\partial \hat{\beta}^T} = \hat{X}^T\hat{W}\hat{X}.
|
|

<h2 id="___sec11">Extending to more predictors </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Within a binary classification problem, we can easily expand our model to include multiple predictors. Our ratio between likelihoods is then with \( p \) predictors
|
|
$$
|
|
\log{ \frac{p(\hat{\beta}\hat{x})}{1-p(\hat{\beta}\hat{x})}} = \beta_0+\beta_1x_1+\beta_2x_2+\dots+\beta_px_p.
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
Here we defined \( \hat{x}=[1,x_1,x_2,\dots,x_p] \) and \( \hat{\beta}=[\beta_0, \beta_1, \dots, \beta_p] \) leading to
|
|
$$
|
|
p(\hat{\beta}\hat{x})=\frac{ \exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_1+\beta_2x_2+\dots+\beta_px_p)}}{1+\exp{(\beta_0+\beta_1x_1+\beta_2x_2+\dots+\beta_px_p)}}.

<h2 id="___sec12">Including more classes </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Till now we have mainly focused on two classes, the so-called binary
|
|
system. Suppose we wish to extend to \( K \) classes. Let us for the sake
|
|
of simplicity assume we have only two predictors. We have then
|
|
following model
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\log{\frac{p(C=1\vert x)}{p(K\vert x)}} = \beta_{10}+\beta_{11}x_1,
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\log{\frac{p(C=2\vert x)}{p(K\vert x)}} = \beta_{20}+\beta_{21}x_1,
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
and so on till the class \( C=K-1 \) class
|
|
$$
|
|
\log{\frac{p(C=K-1\vert x)}{p(K\vert x)}} = \beta_{(K-1)0}+\beta_{(K-1)1}x_1,
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
and the model is specified in term of \( K-1 \) so-called log-odds or
|
|
<b>logit</b> transformations.

<h2 id="___sec13">The Softmax function </h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In our discussion of neural networks we will encounter the above again
|
|
in terms of the so-called <b>Softmax</b> function.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The softmax function is used in various multiclass classification
|
|
methods, such as multinomial logistic regression (also known as
|
|
softmax regression), multiclass linear discriminant analysis, naive
|
|
Bayes classifiers, and artificial neural networks. Specifically, in
|
|
multinomial logistic regression and linear discriminant analysis, the
|
|
input to the function is the result of \( K \) distinct linear functions,
|
|
and the predicted probability for the \( k \)-th class given a sample
|
|
vector \( \hat{x} \) and a weighting vector \( \hat{\beta} \) is (with two
|
|
predictors):
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
p(C=k\vert \mathbf {x} )=\frac{\exp{(\beta_{k0}+\beta_{k1}x_1)}}{1+\sum_{l=1}^{K-1}\exp{(\beta_{l0}+\beta_{l1}x_1)}}.
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
It is easy to extend to more predictors. The final class is
|
|
$$
|
|
p(C=K\vert \mathbf {x} )=\frac{1}{1+\sum_{l=1}^{K-1}\exp{(\beta_{l0}+\beta_{l1}x_1)}},
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
and they sum to one. Our earlier discussions were all specialized to
|
|
the case with two classes only. It is easy to see from the above that
|
|
what we derived earlier is compatible with these equations.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To find the optimal parameters we would typically use a gradient
|
|
descent method. Newton's method and gradient descent methods are
|
|
discussed in the material on <a href="https://compphysics.github.io/MachineLearning/doc/pub/Splines/html/Splines-bs.html" target="_blank">optimization
|
|
methods</a>.
