What is a ridge regularization?
Synonym for L2 regularization.
ridge regularization explained in plain English
Synonym for L2 regularization. The term ridge regularization is more frequently used in pure statistics contexts, whereas L2 regularization is used more often in machine learning.
Example
Practitioners refer to ridge regularization when building, training, or evaluating machine learning systems. It appears in research papers, product documentation, and technical discussions about AI capabilities and limitations.
