Epoch

One complete pass through the entire training dataset during model training.

In more detail

An epoch is when a model sees all training data once. Training typically involves multiple epochs. Monitoring validation performance across epochs helps detect overfitting (when validation performance degrades while training continues).

Examples

  • Training for 100 epochs
  • Early stopping after validation loss stops improving
  • Epoch-based learning rate decay
