Early Stopping

Definition

Early stopping is a regularization technique used in machine learning to prevent overfitting during the training of models. It involves monitoring a model’s performance on a validation dataset and halting the training process when performance on this dataset begins to degrade. While primarily a machine learning concept, its principles relate to optimizing resource allocation in complex systems, including those that might inform predictive models for digital asset markets. This method ensures efficient use of computational resources.
