Abstract
A document classification system updates the logistic regression parameters of the logistic regression algorithm used to classify the documents, using a coherent gradient method based upon the coherency between the update data regarding the classifications of the documents and the combined data including both the update data and the original data used to generate the original logistic regression parameters. The classification system can be applied to an email filtering system for filtering spam email.
