An ill-posed problem is a mathematical or computational problem that does not meet the criteria of existence, uniqueness, or stability of solutions, making it difficult to solve reliably. These problems often require regularization techniques to transform them into well-posed problems for practical computation and analysis.

Regularization techniques are methods used in machine learning to prevent overfitting by adding a penalty for larger coefficients in the model. These techniques help improve the generalization of the model on unseen data by controlling the complexity of the model parameters.

A well-posed problem is one that satisfies the conditions of existence, uniqueness, and stability of solutions, ensuring the problem can be solved reliably. These criteria, coined by Hadamard, are crucial for problems in mathematics and physics to yield meaningful and applicable results.
