class cockpit.instruments.early_stopping_gauge(self, fig, gridspec)

Early Stopping gauge, showing the LHS of the stopping criterion versus iteration.

Early stopping the training has been widely used to prevent poor generalization due to over-fitting. Mahsereci et al. (2017) proposed an evidence-based stopping criterion based on mini-batch statistics. This instruments visualizes this criterion versus iteration, overlayed with an exponentially weighted average. If the stopping criterion becomes positive, this suggests stopping the training according to

• Mahsereci, M., Balles, L., Lassner, C., & Hennig, P., Early stopping without a validation set (2017).
