5REDUCING OVERFITTING WITH DATA
Suppose we train a neural network classifier in a supervised fashion and notice that it suffers from overfitting. What are some of the common ways to reduce overfitting in neural networks through the use of altered or additional data?
Overfitting, a common problem in machine learning, occurs when a model fits the training data too closely, learning its noise and outliers rather than the underlying pattern. As a result, the model performs well on the training data but poorly on unseen or test data. While it is ideal to prevent overfitting, it’s often not possible to completely eliminate it. Instead, we aim to reduce ...
