00:00welcome to day 13 of wisdom academy ai my incredible wizards i'm anastasia your super

00:09thrilled ai guide and i'm absolutely buzzing with excitement today have you ever wondered how ai can

00:15classify things like deciding if an email is spam or not with magical accuracy we're about to master

00:21logistic regression a powerful classification technique and it's going to be an unforgettable

00:26journey you won't want to miss a second of this adventure so let's get started

00:34logistic regression is our star today and i'm so excited to share its magic it's a supervised

00:39machine learning algorithm designed specifically for classification tasks not regression despite

00:44its name it predicts categories like yes or no true or false or zero and one making decisions clear and

00:52simple for example it can classify emails as spam or not spam helping us filter our inbox effectively

00:59it uses probability to decide which category an item belongs to making it super intuitive

01:05despite its name it's all about classification not predicting numbers like linear regression

01:11this makes it a magical tool for binary outcomes i'm so thrilled to dive deeper

01:20why use logistic regression let's find out i'm so thrilled to share its benefits it's simple and

01:26interpretable making it perfect for classification tasks especially for beginners starting out it works

01:31wonderfully for binary classification problems where we need to choose between two categories it's fast

01:37to train and easy to understand saving us time while delivering clear results for example it can

01:43predict if a customer will buy a product helping businesses target their marketing it also gives

01:48probabilities not just yes or no answers adding depth to our predictions logistic regression is a

01:53foundational spell for classification magic i'm so excited to explore it

01:57let's compare binary and multi-class logistic regression and i'm so thrilled to explain the difference

02:07binary logistic regression handles two categories like classifying emails as spam or not spam keeping

02:14it simple multi-class logistic regression deals with more than two categories such as classifying

02:20animals as cat dog or bird expanding our options it uses techniques like one versus rest where it breaks

02:26the problem into multiple binary classifications for each category for example we can classify images of

02:32animals into multiple labels identifying them accurately this extends the magic to more categories

02:39making it incredibly useful logistic regression is a versatile tool for complex classification

02:45i love its flexibility

02:46evaluating logistic regression models is so important and i'm so eager to share how we do it we use

02:57metrics like accuracy precision and recall to measure how well our model classifies data correctly

03:04a confusion matrix shows true positives false negatives and other outcomes giving us a detailed view of

03:10performance we also use the roc curve and auc to evaluate how well the model handles

03:16probabilities across thresholds accuracy alone isn't enough we need to dig deeper to understand

03:22misclassifications and improve these metrics ensure our classification magic shines confirming our

03:28model's reliability let's measure our spell success i'm so excited to see the results

03:38the confusion matrix is a powerful tool and i'm so thrilled to share how it works

03:43it's a matrix that compares true versus predicted classifications showing where our model succeeds or

03:48fails true positives or tp are the correctly predicted yes cases like correctly identifying spam emails

03:55false negatives or fn are the missed yes predictions where we failed to catch a spam email for example

04:01true negatives and false positives complete the matrix covering all outcomes of our predictions this

04:07visualizes where our magic needs tweaking highlighting errors to improve it's a powerful tool for

04:13classification insights i'm so excited to use it the roc curve and auc are magical metrics and i'm so thrilled

04:24to share how they work the roc curve plots the true positive rate against the false positive rate showing how

04:30well our model distinguishes classes auc or area under the curve ranges from zero to one with a higher

04:37value meaning better probability predictions across thresholds for example an auc of 0.9 indicates an

04:44excellent model capable of separating spam from non-spam effectively this measures how well our magic

04:50separates classes giving us confidence in our predictions it's a magical way to evaluate performance

04:56i'm so excited to see its insights logistic regression has amazing real world applications and i'm so

05:07inspired to share them in business it can predict customer churn determining if a customer will leave

05:13yes or no helping retain them in healthcare it diagnoses diseases classifying patients as having a disease

05:19or not aiding medical decisions in marketing it predicts ad click-through rates helping optimize

05:25campaigns for better engagement in finance it assesses credit risk predicting if a borrower will

05:31default or not guiding lending decisions logistic regression is a versatile spell for classification

05:36tasks making a difference everywhere it impacts many fields with ai magic i'm so thrilled by its reach

05:48here are some tips for using logistic regression and i'm so thrilled to share my wizard wisdom

05:53start with binary classification for simplicity as it's easier to grasp when you're just beginning

05:57with ai check for balanced data before training ensuring you have enough yes and no examples to avoid bias

06:04use visualizations like scatter plots to understand the decision boundaries and confirm the model's fit

06:10experiment with regularization like l1 or l2 to avoid overfitting and keep your model generalizable

06:17keep practicing to perfect your magic as hands-on experience is key these tips will make you a

06:22classification wizard i'm so excited for your progress
