Hi Joel,

I've sent this email on friday, but it got stuck on some revision queue
because of the attachment size, so I'm repeating it with a link :P
https://github.com/pignacio/scikit-learn/blob/loo_is_bad_doc/doc/images/cross_validation_comparison.svg

In https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/2529, there's an image
that should be stripped from the repository and generated via matplotlib on
doc generation:
https://github.com/pignacio/scikit-learn/blob/loo_is_bad_doc/doc/images/cross_validation_comparison.svg

I'm failing to understand the x-axis meaning, as I could not find
references to regularization in the LogisticRegression docs. If someone
could provide a link/explanation, that would be great.

Once that's settled I'm pretty sure I can write the code to generate the
image using some example dataset.

Thanks

Ignacio
