The goal of regularization is to find a balance between fitting the training data well and keeping the model complexity in check, which helps in improving the model’s ability to generalize to unseen data.
— Christopher M. Bishop
One of the significant pillars of deep learning is the concept of regularization techniques. When a neural network is trained, the resulting model is expected to perform well for both training and testing data. However, if the model performs very well for the training data but fails poorly for unforeseen testing data, then this issue is called an overfitting problem. In extreme cases, the resulting model may not work for training and testing ...
