Visualising True Positives and False Positives against Features with scikit-learn

Here I’m starting to look into the errors caused in the social media brand disambiguator project. Below I look at true and false positives (correct and mistaken is-a-brand classifications) and plot them against the number of features that two different classifiers can use to calculate their class membership probabilities. First I’m using the default LogisticRegression […]

Visualising the internals of Logistic Regression on a Text Matrix

Below I have some plots that visualise the term matrix (as a binary matrix and as a TF-IDF matrix) for the brand disambiguation project followed by a visualisation of the coefficients used in scikit-learn’s LogisticRegression classifier using l1 and l2 penalties. Using a CountVectorizer with binary=True we can mark the absence or presence of a […]
