Logistic Regression is applied when the Dependent Variable is of Continuous nature.

Select True or False.

True

False You Selected

Logistic Regression is used for classification problems, i.e. when the dependent variable is
of Categorical Nature For Example Good or Not Good Guilty or Not Guilty Defaulter or

of Categorical Nature. For Example, Good or Not Good, Guilty or Not Guilty, Defaulter or
Not a defaulter etc.

On the contrary, when you are trying to predict a Continuous Variable, you can choose to
use Linear Regression. For example, Price of a commodity, Run Rate of a Batsman etc.

If ln(odds) of an event is 0, what is the probability of that event?

Note: 'ln' refers to the natural logarithm (i.e. logarithm to the base )

0.5 You Selected

None of the mentioned.

Follows from the definition.

In this case, we know that ln(P/(1-P) = 0. So, for the equation to be 0 we need to have P =
1-P (as ln(1) = 0). Thus, we can say that P=1-P=0.5.

Good

Predicted Bad 200 820

0.89 You Selected

0.92

Accuracy = (TP+TN)/ (TP+TN+FP+FN)

Accuracy = (2300+820)/(2300+180+200+820) = 0.89

To predict whether a heart attack is fatal, logistic regression is fitted. Y = 1, if the attack is
fatal, 0 otherwise. The following model is found to be adequate

= -8.5 + 0.2*Age + 0.15*Smoking Status [here 'ln' stands for natural logarithm
(i.e. logarithm to the base  )]

Where Smoking Status = 1 if the person is a current smoker and 0 otherwise. Find the
percentage probability that a 50-year-old non-smoker will have a fatal attack.

Putting the required value in the log-odds equation we get:

 = -8.5 + 0.2*(50) + 0.15*(0) = 1.5

Pr(Y = 1) = exp(1.5)/(1+exp(1.5)) = 0.8175

Q No: 7 Correct Answer

Marks: 1.50/1.50

To answer the question, please follow the instructions given below:

Use the given dataset 

Drop the "Prisoner Ids" Variable
Do not scale the data
Do not split the data into training and test.

Build a Logistic Regression Model on the data set.

What is the value of the True Positives predictions based on the confusion matrix?

Note: For this question, use the whole data to build the model, then use the independent
variables to predict the same whole data and then build a confusion matrix.

Note: Please do not pre-process the data in any way before fitting the logistic regression
model.

480 You Selected

674

140

78

In python, when you print the confusion matrix it is understood like this:

0 1

0 674 140

1 78 480

 0,1 represents the class predicted. 0 comes first.

True Positive is when the actual class is 1 and the model predicted it to be 1 as well. Thus,
for index location [1,1] is the true positive in the given confusion matrix i.e. 480.

Try this code from documentation: https://scikit-

learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.metrics.confusion_matrix.htmlLinks to an
external site.

tn, fp, fn, tp = metrics.confusion_matrix(actuals,predicted).ravel()

print('Number of True Positives is ',tp)

Output: # of True Positives is 480
