regularizations

Regularizations is the plural of regularization, which refers to the process of making something conform to rules, standards, or accepted patterns.

In machine learning and statistics, regularization is a technique that prevents models from overfitting by adding constraints or penalties: L1 and L2 regularizations help the model generalize better to new data.

More broadly, regularization can mean bringing irregular situations into compliance with norms: the regularization of informal settlements, regularizations of immigration status.
