LogisticRegressionModel.GetBaseLogLikelihood Method

Returns the log-likelihood of the model containing only a constant term.

Definition

Namespace: Numerics.NET.Statistics
Assembly: Numerics.NET (in Numerics.NET.dll) Version: 9.0.3
C#
public double GetBaseLogLikelihood()

Return Value

Double
The log-likelihood of the model containing only a constant term.

Remarks

This method returns the logarithm of the likelihood function for the model with all independent variables excluded. A smaller value indicates a higher likelihood. This is useful for comparing with the log-likelihood of the complete model.

Because the likelihood is a number between 0 and 1, the value returned by this method is always negative.
