sklearn LogisticRegression without regularization

Question

Logistic regression class in sklearn comes with L1 and L2 regularization. How can I turn off regularization to get the \"raw\" logistic fit such as in glmfit in Matlab? I think

Answer 1

Yes, choose as large a number as possible. In regularization, the cost function includes a regularization expression, and keep in mind that the C parameter in sklearn regularization is the inverse of the regularization strength.

C in this case is 1/lambda, subject to the condition that C > 0.

Therefore, when C approaches infinity, then lambda approaches 0. When this happens, then the cost function becomes your standard error function, since the regularization expression becomes, for all intents and purposes, 0.
