> Linear models is MLLIB so far support no regularization, L1 and L2. Another more recently popularized method for regularization is dropout [http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~rsalakhu/papers/srivastava14a.pdf]. The dropout regularization basically randomly omit some of the input features at each iteration. 
> Though this approach is particularly used in training deep networks, they could also be very useful on a linear models as if promotes adaptive regularization. This approach is particularly useful in NLP [http://papers.nips.cc/paper/4882-dropout-training-as-adaptive-regularization.pdf] and, because of its simplicity can be easily adopted for streaming linear models as well.
