How many epochs? about conve HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi Tim, thank you for your prompt reply!
At the moment I'm running a training on FB15K; I'm going to check what happens around 600 epochs then.

I'm going to close this issue (since there is not a real "issue" with the model).
In case I need more info, can I contact you at the email address in the ConvE paper?

Thanks again for your kindness!

Unfortunately, I did not record the exact number of epochs. The logs have some detail, but they are outdated since they came from before the bugfix in #18. However, the logs might still show you a reasonable number of epochs to run for a model. Note that some logs are split into multiple runs (FB15k) where I resume the checkpoint and train a bit more multiple times.

For the evaluation procedure, I would record the test score associated with the highest validation score. The number of epochs changes from dataset to dataset but usually I run until I do not see any reasonable increases in validation set performance. For some datasets this can be a lot of epochs, for example, I think on FB15k it ranged into about 600 epochs or so since you see still tiny but steady improvements after many epochs. For FB15k-237 you see a maximum validation score at a lot smaller number of epochs — I do not remember the exact number, but it was in the range of 40-60 epochs I think.

Let me know if you need more info in general or on any dataset.
