Bregman Distance to L1 Regularized Logistic Regression

21 Apr 2010  ·  Mithun Das Gupta, Thomas S. Huang ·

In this work we investigate the relationship between Bregman distances and regularized Logistic Regression model. We present a detailed study of Bregman Distance minimization, a family of generalized entropy measures associated with convex functions. We convert the L1-regularized logistic regression into this more general framework and propose a primal-dual method based algorithm for learning the parameters. We pose L1-regularized logistic regression into Bregman distance minimization and then apply non-linear constrained optimization techniques to estimate the parameters of the logistic model.
