Torchsample provides an implementation of early stopping.

Is it available in 0.4 ?
I am getting "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘torchsample’ " error.
I couldn’t find it in documentation either, please point me to the documentation if it is available.
Thank you.

No, it was a standalone repo, but it seems to be abandoned.

EDIT: Ignite seems to have an implementation of early stopping here.

Here is my implementation, it should be easy to read and customize it.

I’ve implemented early stopping for PyTorch and made an example that shows how to use it; you can check it out here.

Thank you for your script. It works well. I was wondering what if the loss validation is decreasing very slightly over epochs ( ie delta validation loss < 1e-4 for instance). Does the model stop learning in your case?

You are welcome! No, it does not have this functionality. Feel free to submit a pull request if you implement this feature.

Is there any official implementation in pytorch1.x?

Hi, I have a suggestion for your implementation.

Wouldn’t it be more apt to store context as well along with the model during saving & loading a general checkpoint for inference and/or resuming training?

torch.save({
            'epoch': epoch,
            'model_state_dict': model.state_dict(),
            'optimizer_state_dict': optimizer.state_dict(),
            'loss': loss,
            ...
            }, PATH)

Just implemented this feature and made a pull request. Thank you for writing the original library, it definitely came in handy!

can you please add setup.by to your script so others can install it via pip?
