question

You are training a linear regression model for a simple estimation task, and notice that the model is overfitting to the data. You decide to add in ℓ2\ell_2 regularization to penalize the weights. As you increase the ℓ2\ell_2 regularization coefficient, what will happen to the bias and variance of the model?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)

Original LaTeX notation
You are training a linear regression model for a simple estimation task, and notice that the model is overfitting to the data. You decide to add in $\ell_2$ regularization to penalize the weights. As you increase the $\ell_2$ regularization coefficient, what will happen to the bias and variance of the model?

choices
