Apr 26, 2021…ile odds ratio can vary between 0 to positive infinity, log (odds ratio) will vary between [-∞, ∞]. Specifically when odds ratio lies between [0,1], log (odds ratio) is negative.‘Logit’ of Logistic Regression; Understanding the Fundamentals1K7Saptashwa BhattacharyyaHi., Lets take two case,Hi., Lets take two case, Case_1: p = 0.9 then odd_1 = 0.9/0.1 =9 Case_2: p = 0.5 then odd_2 = 0.5/0.5 = 1 now odd ratio = 9/1 = 1 which violates the range [0,1]. Am I missing something ?1 min read1 min read
Apr 9, 2021Co-Variance in WordsCovariance is the concept of variance to multiple random variables. Instead of measuring the fluctuation of a single random variable, the covariance measures the fluctuation of two variables with each other. Var[X+Y] = Var[X] + Var[Y] + 2.XY.Cov(X,Y) ?Covariance2 min readCovariance2 min read
Apr 8, 2021Expectation i.e. ‘E[X]’ in WordsA Random variable is a variable whose value is determined by some random event. The Expectation of random variable ‘X’ i.e. E[X] is the central tendency of X when picked once randomly from the sample space (i.e. a homogeneous/ heterogeneous space of all possible outcome).
