引言
逻辑回归(Logistic Regression)是机器学习中最基础且应用最广泛的分类算法之一。尽管名字中包含”回归”,但它实际上是一种用于二分类问题的判别式模型。逻辑回归通过Sigmoid函数将线性组合映射到(0,1)概率区间,实现对样本类别的概率预测。由于其模型简单、可解释性强、训练高效,逻辑回归被广泛应用于信用评分、医疗诊断、广告点击预测等场景。本文将用Java从零实现逻辑回归,包括Sigmoid函数、交叉熵损失、梯度下降优化,并通过一个二维数据集可视化其决策边界。
算法原理
Sigmoid函数与概率预测
逻辑回归的假设函数为Sigmoid函数:
$$h_\theta(x) = \sigma(\theta^T x) = \frac{1}{1 + e^{-\theta^T x}}$$
其中 $\theta$ 为模型参数向量,$x$ 为特征向量(通常包含偏置项 $x_0 = 1$)。Sigmoid函数将任意实数映射到(0,1)区间,可解释为样本属于正类的概率。
决策边界
当 $h_\theta(x) \geq 0.5$ 时预测为正类,即 $\theta^T x \geq 0$。在二维空间中,决策边界为一条直线:
$$\theta_0 + \theta_1 x_1 + \theta_2 x_2 = 0$$
交叉熵损失函数
逻辑回归采用对数似然损失(交叉熵):
$$J(\theta) = -\frac{1}{m}\sum_{i=1}^{m}\left[y^{(i)}\log h_\theta(x^{(i)}) + (1-y^{(i)})\log(1-h_\theta(x^{(i)}))\right]$$
梯度下降更新
损失函数对参数 $\theta_j$ 的偏导数为:
$$\frac{\partial J}{\partial \theta_j} = \frac{1}{m}\sum_{i=1}^{m}(h_\theta(x^{(i)}) – y^{(i)})x_j^{(i)}$$
参数更新规则:
$$\theta_j := \theta_j – \alpha \frac{\partial J}{\partial \theta_j}$$

复杂度分析
| 操作 | 时间复杂度 | 空间复杂度 |
|---|---|---|
| 单次预测 | O(n) | O(1) |
| 单轮梯度计算 | O(m × n) | O(n) |
| 完整训练(T轮) | O(T × m × n) | O(n) |
其中 $m$ 为样本数,$n$ 为特征数(含偏置)。逻辑回归的计算效率极高,是工业界首选的基线分类模型。
总结
本文实现了逻辑回归的完整流程,核心要点包括:
- Sigmoid函数将线性预测映射为概率值,其S形曲线天然适合二分类场景
- 交叉熵损失衡量预测概率分布与真实分布的差异,是分类问题的标准损失函数
- 梯度下降通过迭代优化参数,使损失函数沿负梯度方向收敛到局部最小值
- 决策边界是特征空间中的线性超平面,模型可解释性直接体现在参数权重上
逻辑回归虽然模型简单,但因其训练高效、结果可解释、不易过拟合,在实际业务中仍有不可替代的价值。当特征与对数几率呈线性关系时,逻辑回归往往是最优选择。
