Logistic regression quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Logistic regression card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
In regression analysis, logistic regression estimates the ______ of a logistic model.
Answer
parameters. In regression analysis, logistic regression estimates the parameters of a logistic model. From the Logistic regression article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Logistic regression. Logistic regression 87 · Heavy water 83 · Sulfuric acid 80 · Kelvin 75 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In regression analysis, logistic regression estimates the parameters of a logistic model.
- In binary logistic regression there is a single binary dependent variable, coded by an indicator variable, where the two values are labeled "0" and "1", while the independent variables can each be a binary variable or a continuous variable.
- The corresponding probability of the value labeled "1" can vary between 0 and 1, hence the labeling, the function that converts log-odds to probability is the logistic function, hence the name.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Logistic regression article was read about 280,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 87 and blocks with 78: each hit it takes is cut by 31 %.
How to get Logistic regression
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
