• From https://www.dezyre.com/article/top-10-machine-learning-algorithms/202: "The name of this algorithm could be a little confusing in the sense that Logistic Regression machine learning algorithm is for classification tasks and not regression problems. The name ‘Regression’ here implies that a linear model is fit into the feature space. This algorithm applies a logistic function to a linear combination of features to predict the outcome of a categorical dependent variable based on predictor variables."
