Logistic regression is the last method I shared with the Army unit. I believe logistic regression is an excellent classification model. You are limited to two outcomes, but it is interpretable.

Linear Discriminate Analysis (LDA) is a great classification method. It is simple and interpretable and can perform as well, if not better, than a lot of other fancier models (neural networks that are not interpretable).
I had the opportunity to share different classification models with a unit in the Army. I put these together to help give them what they could do as well as tell them some limitations of the models. I thought they might be useful for my students. This post is over KNN. I will have other post that discuss the other methods.
