Training Best Practices

• Data Split: 70/15/15 for train/validation/test
• Scaling: Normalize features before training
• Cross-validation: Use K-fold for robust evaluation
• Early Stopping: Prevent overfitting
• Class Balancing: Handle imbalanced datasets

Key Metrics

• Accuracy: Overall correctness
• Precision: Positive prediction accuracy
• Recall: True positive detection rate
• F1 Score: Harmonic mean of precision/recall
• ROC-AUC: Threshold-independent metric

Deliverables

• Trained model checkpoint
• Performance metrics on test set
• Feature importance analysis
• Learning curves
• Hyperparameter configuration
• Model evaluation report
