Issues with Model Training and Overfitting in PyTorch

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out for help regarding an issue I’m facing while training my model in PyTorch.

Issue: I’ve noticed that my model is overfitting significantly on the training data, which is affecting its performance on the validation set.

Details:

  • I’m using PyTorch version [insert version number].
  • The architecture I’m working with is [insert model architecture, e.g., CNN, RNN].
  • My training dataset consists of [insert dataset size and type].
  • I’ve implemented [mention any techniques you’ve tried, e.g., dropout, data augmentation], but the overfitting persists.

Questions:

  1. What strategies can I employ to reduce overfitting in my model?
  2. Are there specific hyperparameters I should focus on adjusting?
  3. How can I effectively evaluate my model’s performance to ensure it’s generalizing well?

I appreciate any insights or advice you can provide!

Thank you for your help!

What type of task (e.g., classification, object detection)? How much data? How are you augmenting? HOw do you split into training/validation? What are you doing? Do you have code you can share a link to?
