I am making a classification model. I understand that the regularization minimizes loss functions. Can i use regularization techniques to minimize loss function in classification if doing so is possible. Please help me with some suggestions or useful links.

  • $\begingroup$ Yes, you can use regularization for classification. Check Deep Learning with Python Book. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 10:27

    $\begingroup$ Yes, the same types of regularization that are used for regression can also be used for classification. You can check this post which describes some regularization techniques. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 10:51

    $\begingroup$ Regularization does NOT minimize loss functions. Regularization usually increases loss function, but often offers better generalization. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 17:09
