     The optimization objective for sparse Logistic regression is:
 
-    .. math:: 1 / n_"samples" sum_(i=1)^(n_"samples") log(1 + exp(-y_i x_i^T w))
-        + alpha ||w||_1
+    .. math::
+        1 / n_"samples" \sum_{i=1}^{n_"samples"} log(1 + exp(-y_i x_i^T w))
+        + tt"l1_ratio" xx alpha ||w||_1
+        + (1 - tt"l1_ratio") xx alpha/2 ||w||_2 ^ 2
+
+    By default, ``l1_ratio=1.0`` corresponds to Lasso (pure L1 penalty).
+    When ``0 < l1_ratio < 1``, the penalty is a convex combination of L1 and L2
+    (i.e., ElasticNet). ``l1_ratio=0.0`` corresponds to Ridge (pure L2), but note
+    that pure Ridge is not typically used with this class.
