Re: Interpretation of co-efficients of features in Mahout logistic output

["Nowal, Akshay" <Ak...@SYNTELINC.COM>]

Thanks Ted for the early reply.

But what I m not understanding is "what is the significance of these
features?"

What do they relate to?

I have gone through logistic regression in "Mahout in Action" book ,I
know it is a very silly question but I m not clear what features are
here and how to interpret the co-efficients of these 69 features?

What are these 69 fetaures?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Akshay Nowal

See any text on logistic regression.  The results are essentially the
same.
