...q- What is the advantage offered by an edge-triggered RS flip-flop over a clocked or gated RS f lip-flop? The primary advantage of an edge-triggered RS flip-flop over a clocked or gated RS flip-flop lies in its ability to respond to changes in input only at specific moments, typically on the rising or falling edge of a clock signal. Here are some key advantages:
Reduced Glitches: Edge-triggered flip-flops only sample the input signals at the moment of the clock edge, which minimizes the risk of

Regularization is a set of techniques used to reduce overfitting by encouraging simpler models. It works by adding a penalty term to the loss function that discourages overly large or complex weights. The two most common forms are L2 (ridge) and L1 (lasso) regularization. | L2 Regularization (Ridge / Weight Decay) adds the squared L2 norm of the weights to the loss: L(w) = original loss + λ‖w‖². This shrinks weights proportionally to their size, encouraging small, smooth parameters. Gradient
