Abstract

Logistic regression (LR) is a conventional statistical technique used for data classification problem. Logistic regression is a model-based method, and it uses nonlinear model structure. Another technique used for classification is feedforward artificial neural networks. Feedforward artificial neural network is a data-based method which can model nonlinear models through its activation function. In this study, a hybrid approach of model-based logistic regression technique and data-based artificial neural network was proposed for classification purposes. The proposed approach was applied to lung cancer data, and obtained results were compared. It was seen that the proposed hybrid approach was superior to logistic regression and feedforward artificial neural networks with respect to many criteria.
