Regularization techniques combat overfitting in machine learning models

Machine learning models can sometimes overfit training data by memorizing it rather than learning general patterns, leading to poor performance on new examples. Regularization is a technique to combat this by penalizing excessively large model weights. This encourages the model to find a balance between fitting the training data well and maintaining simplicity, ultimately improving its ability to generalize to unseen data. AI
