A regularization term (or regularizer) () is added to a loss function: = ((),) + where is an underlying loss function that describes the cost of predicting () when the label is , such as the square loss or hinge loss; and is a parameter which controls the importance of the regularization term.
This regularization function, while attractive for the sparsity that it guarantees, is very difficult to solve because doing so requires optimization of a function that is not even weakly convex. Lasso regression is the minimal possible relaxation of penalization that yields a weakly convex optimization problem.
Also known as Tikhonov regularization, named for Andrey Tikhonov, it is a method of regularization of ill-posed problems. [ a ] It is particularly useful to mitigate the problem of multicollinearity in linear regression , which commonly occurs in models with large numbers of parameters. [ 3 ]
Spectral Regularization is also used to enforce a reduced rank coefficient matrix in multivariate regression. [4] In this setting, a reduced rank coefficient matrix can be found by keeping just the top n {\displaystyle n} singular values, but this can be extended to keep any reduced set of singular values and vectors.
In statistics and, in particular, in the fitting of linear or logistic regression models, the elastic net is a regularized regression method that linearly combines the L 1 and L 2 penalties of the lasso and ridge methods. Nevertheless, elastic net regularization is typically more accurate than both methods with regard to reconstruction. [1]
Regularization (L1 norm, L2 norm, & elastic net regularization) Flexible input - input features may be: Binary; Numerical; Categorical (via flexible feature-naming and the hash trick) Can deal with missing values/sparse-features; Other features On the fly generation of feature interactions (quadratic and cubic)
The primary application of the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm is in the least-squares curve fitting problem: given a set of empirical pairs (,) of independent and dependent variables, find the parameters of the model curve (,) so that the sum of the squares of the deviations () is minimized:
Regularization perspectives on support-vector machines interpret SVM as a special case of Tikhonov regularization, specifically Tikhonov regularization with the hinge loss for a loss function. This provides a theoretical framework with which to analyze SVM algorithms and compare them to other algorithms with the same goals: to generalize ...
