r"""
Monitor a metric and stop training when it stops improving.
Args:
monitor: quantity to be monitored.
min_delta: minimum change in the monitored quantity to qualify as an improvement, i.e. an absolute
change of less than or equal to `min_delta`, will count as no improvement.
patience: number of checks with no improvement
after which training will be stopped. Under the default configuration, one check happens after
every training epoch. However, the frequency of validation can be modified by setting various parameters on
the ``Trainer``, for example ``check_val_every_n_epoch`` and ``val_check_interval``.
.. note::
It must be noted that the patience parameter counts the number of validation checks with
no improvement, and not the number of training epochs. Therefore, with parameters
``check_val_every_n_epoch=10`` and ``patience=3``, the trainer will perform at least 40 training
epochs before being stopped.
verbose: verbosity mode.
mode: one of ``'min'``, ``'max'``. In ``'min'`` mode, training will stop when the quantity
monitored has stopped decreasing and in ``'max'`` mode it will stop when the quantity
monitored has stopped increasing.
strict: whether to crash the training if `monitor` is not found in the validation metrics.
check_finite: When set ``True``, stops training when the monitor becomes NaN or infinite.
stopping_threshold: Stop training immediately once the monitored quantity reaches this threshold.
divergence_threshold: Stop training as soon as the monitored quantity becomes worse than this threshold.
check_on_train_epoch_end: whether to run early stopping at the end of the training epoch.
If this is ``False``, then the check runs at the end of the validation.
Raises:
MisconfigurationException:
If ``mode`` is none of ``"min"`` or ``"max"``.
RuntimeError:
If the metric ``monitor`` is not available.
Example::
>>> from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
>>> from pytorch_lightning.callbacks import EarlyStopping
>>> early_stopping = EarlyStopping('val_loss')
>>> trainer = Trainer(callbacks=[early_stopping])
.. tip:: Saving and restoring multiple early stopping callbacks at the same time is supported under variation in the
following arguments:
*monitor, mode*
