This module regroups the callbacks that track one of the metrics computed at the end of each epoch to take some decision about training. To show examples of use, we'll use our sample of MNIST and a simple cnn model.
path = untar_data(URLs.MNIST_SAMPLE)
data = ImageDataBunch.from_folder(path)

class TerminateOnNaNCallback[source][test]
TerminateOnNaNCallback() ::Callback
No tests found for TerminateOnNaNCallback. To contribute a test please refer to this guide and this discussion.
A Callback that terminates training if loss is NaN.
Sometimes, training diverges and the loss goes to nan. In that case, there's no point continuing, so this callback stops the training.
model = simple_cnn((3,16,16,2))
learn = Learner(data, model, metrics=[accuracy])
learn.fit_one_cycle(1,1e4)
| epoch | train_loss | valid_loss | accuracy | time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | nan | nan | 0.495584 | 00:04 |
Using it prevents that situation to happen.
model = simple_cnn((3,16,16,2))
learn = Learner(data, model, metrics=[accuracy], callbacks=[TerminateOnNaNCallback()])
learn.fit(2,1e4)
| epoch | train_loss | valid_loss | accuracy | time |
|---|
Epoch/Batch (0/5): Invalid loss, terminating training.
You don't call these yourself - they're called by fastai's Callback system automatically to enable the class's functionality.

A TrackerCallback that terminates training when monitored quantity stops improving.
This callback tracks the quantity in monitor during the training of learn. mode can be forced to 'min' or 'max' but will automatically try to determine if the quantity should be the lowest possible (validation loss) or the highest possible (accuracy). Will stop training after patience epochs if the quantity hasn't improved by min_delta.
model = simple_cnn((3,16,16,2))
learn = Learner(data, model, metrics=[accuracy],
callback_fns=[partial(EarlyStoppingCallback, monitor='accuracy', min_delta=0.01, patience=3)])
learn.fit(50,1e-42)
| epoch | train_loss | valid_loss | accuracy | time |
|---|---|---|---|---|

A TrackerCallback that saves the model when monitored quantity is best.
This callback tracks the quantity in monitor during the training of learn. mode can be forced to 'min' or 'max' but will automatically try to determine if the quantity should be the lowest possible (validation loss) or the highest possible (accuracy). Will save the model in name whenever determined by every ('improvement' or 'epoch'). Loads the best model at the end of training is every='improvement'.
model = simple_cnn((3,16,16,2))
learn = Learner(data, model, metrics=[accuracy])
learn.fit_one_cycle(5,1e-4, callbacks=[SaveModelCallback(learn, every='epoch', monitor='accuracy', name='model')])
Choosing every='epoch' saves an individual model at the end of each epoch.
!ls ~/.fastai/data/mnist_sample/models
learn.fit_one_cycle(5,1e-4, callbacks=[SaveModelCallback(learn, every='improvement', monitor='accuracy', name='best')])
Choosing every='improvement' saves the single best model out of all epochs during training.

A TrackerCallback that reduces learning rate when a metric has stopped improving.
This callback tracks the quantity in monitor during the training of learn. mode can be forced to 'min' or 'max' but will automatically try to determine if the quantity should be the lowest possible (validation loss) or the highest possible (accuracy). Will reduce the learning rate by factor after patience epochs if the quantity hasn't improved by min_delta.
