MLS-C01 Modeling Practice Question

Correct answer & explanation

Gradient accumulation, is correct because it allows the use of larger effective batch sizes without increasing memory usage, which can lead to faster convergence and reduced training time. Option A, increasing L2 regularization, does not directly reduce training time; it helps prevent overfitting. Option B, reducing model complexity, can reduce training time but may cause significant accuracy loss due to underfitting. Option D, early stopping, can reduce training time by stopping training early but does not address the core issue of slow training per epoch; it may also halt training before convergence, risking accuracy loss.
