Challenge: Implementing Logistic Regression
To implement Logistic Regression in Python, the LogisticRegression
class is used:
For now, you can stick with the default parameters. Creating and fitting the model can be done in a single line:
python
The dataset for this chapter comes from a Portuguese banking institution and contains information from marketing campaigns conducted via phone calls. The goal is to predict whether a client will subscribe to a term deposit, based on their personal, financial, and contact-related details, as well as outcomes of previous marketing interactions.
The data is already preprocessed and ready to be fed to the model.
Task
Swipe to start coding
You are given a Portuguese bank marketing dataset stored as a DataFrame
in the df
variable.
- Split the dataset into training and test sets, allocating 80% for the training data. Set
random_state=42
, and store the resulting sets in theX_train
,X_test
,y_train
,y_test
variables. - Initialize and fit a Logistic Regression model on the training set, storing the fitted model in the
lr
variable. - Calculate the accuracy on the test set and store the result in the
test_accuracy
variable.
