Training and Fine-Tuning
The process of assigning the initial property values used to train a model, including:
the model's composing layers
the location of the data
hyperparameters such as:
In machine learning projects, configuration can be done through a special configuration file or using configuration libraries such as the following:
Created for this library
An ML platform team stores model configuration in version-controlled YAML files so any past training run can be reproduced exactly.
A computer vision team encodes preprocessing, model, and optimizer configuration in a single config file so experiments are reproducible across team members.
A startup's research team uses a hierarchical configuration system so a base configuration can be overridden per experiment without duplicating common settings.
