<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 &quot;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.
