Added logistic regression to the list of Multiclass Classification Supported Methods in the MLlib Classification and Regression documentation, as it was missing.
Author: Mike Dusenberry <dusenberrymw@gmail.com>
Closes #6357 from dusenberrymw/Add_LR_To_List_Of_Multiclass_Classification_Methods and squashes the following commits:
7918650 [Mike Dusenberry] Updating broken link due to the "Binary Classification" section on the Linear Methods page being renamed to "Classification".
3005dc2 [Mike Dusenberry] Adding logistic regression to the list of Multiclass Classification Supported Methods in the MLlib Classification and Regression documentation, as it was missing.
(cherry picked from commit 63a5ce75ea
)

MLlib supports various methods for
|
|
[binary classification](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_classification),
|
|
[multiclass
|
|
classification](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiclass_classification), and
|
|
[regression analysis](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_analysis). The table below outlines
|
|
the supported algorithms for each type of problem.
