How to Improve a Machine Learning Algorithm: Regularization

This article explains the reason for the poor performance of a machine learning algorithm and how to improve it. If the machine learning algorithm does not work as well as you expected, almost all the time it happens because of bias or variance. The algorithm may be suffering from either underfitting or overfitting or a bit of both.
