Regression

- [Instructor] And next, finally let's talk about…regression-based algorithms.…So as I mentioned,…regression is different from classification…that in regression you're predicting a continuous quantity.…So you're trying to create a function…where it accepts certain well-defined inputs…and it returns a continuous quantity…like a number or a price or something like that.…Classification, on the other hand,…is well-defined two or more classifications.…Regression is a continuous quantity.…

And these are the various algorithms available for us…as far as regression goes.…Again, each one of these have their different pros and cons.…Some are faster, some are slower.…Some of them are accurate.…Some of them are not accurate.…The advantage you get is some are cheaper.…Some of them may have a large memory footprint, et cetera.…But these are the various regression algorithms…we have available for us in Azure machine learning.…Remember, if you need to use an algorithm…that's not part of this list,…you can certainly include it.…
