regularisation
Imposing consistent rules
Regularisation is the British spelling of regularization—the process of making something regular, standard, or officially sanctioned.
In machine learning, regularisation refers to techniques that prevent overfitting by adding constraints to a model: L2 regularisation penalises large weights.
The term appears in immigration contexts for programs that grant legal status to undocumented residents.
