The data doctor continues his exploration of Python-based machine learning techniques, explaining binary classification using logistic regression, which he likes for its simplicity. The goal of a ...

One key to efficient data analysis of big data is to do the computations where the data lives. In some cases, that means running R, Python, Java, or Scala programs in a database such as SQL Server or ...
