Usage

logisticRegressionLoss(w, x, y, cache = NULL)

Arguments

w
weight vector where the function have to be evaluated
x
matrix of training instances (one instance by row)
y
numeric vector of values representing the training labels for each instance in x
cache
if NULL (which is the case at the first call) parameters values are checked
