Machine learning

large connected regions of weight space where training error stays roughly constant; networks found there are argued to need less description length and to generalize better.

In machine learning, flat minima refers to large connected regions of weight space where training error stays roughly constant; networks found there are argued to need less description length and to generalize better. This meaning comes from Hochreiter (1997) in Neural Computation.[1]
