# stochasticLogisticRegression {#agg_functions-stochasticlogisticregression}

This function implements stochastic logistic regression. It can be used for binary classification problem, supports the same custom parameters as stochasticLinearRegression and works the same way.

### Parameters {#agg_functions-stochasticlogisticregression-parameters}

Parameters are exactly the same as in stochasticLinearRegression:
`learning rate`, `l2 regularization coefficient`, `mini-batch size`, `method for updating weights`.
For more information see [parameters](#agg_functions-stochasticlinearregression-parameters).

**1.** Fitting

<!-- -->

    See the `Fitting` section in the [stochasticLinearRegression](#stochasticlinearregression-usage-fitting) description.

    Predicted labels have to be in \[-1, 1\].

**2.** Predicting

<!-- -->

    Using saved state we can predict probability of object having label `1`.

    ``` sql
    WITH (SELECT state FROM your_model) AS model SELECT
    evalMLMethod(model, param1, param2) FROM test_data
    ```

    The query will return a column of probabilities. Note that first argument of `evalMLMethod` is `AggregateFunctionState` object, next are columns of features.

    We can also set a bound of probability, which assigns elements to different labels.

    ``` sql
    SELECT ans < 1.1 AND ans > 0.5 FROM
    (WITH (SELECT state FROM your_model) AS model SELECT
    evalMLMethod(model, param1, param2) AS ans FROM test_data)
    ```

    Then the result will be labels.

    `test_data` is a table like `train_data` but may not contain target value.
