gression algorithms allow us to model the relationship between a dependent
variable and one or more independent variables.

After estimating the parameters of a regression model, we can gain insight

into how changes in one variable affect another.

Being widely used in data science, an awareness of their various forms is

crucial to precisely convey which algorithm you are using.

Here are eight of the most standard regression algorithms described in a

single line:

Linear Regression
Simple linear regression: One independent (x) and one dependent (y)
variable.

Polynomial Linear Regression: Polynomial features and one

dependent (y) variable.

Multiple Linear Regression: Arbitrary features and one dependent (y)

variable.

Regularized Regression
Lasso Regression: Linear Regression with L1 Regularization.

Ridge Regression: Linear Regression with L2 Regularization.

Elastic Net: Linear Regression with BOTH L1 and L2 Regularization.

Categorical Probability Prediction

Logistic Regression: Predict binary outcome probability.

Multinomial Logistic Regression (or Softmax Regression): Predict

multiple categorical probabilities.
