Lesson2- almost flat lr curve plot when classifying with my own dataset of images

Dear all,

I am a new user of the fastai library. After watching the second week’s video I wanted to classify my own dataset of 29 classes of signal images. Yet, after following the instructions and plotting the lr curve to decide the best interval of lr values I got the following graph:
image

Which is not exactly what I was waiting for… there doesn’t seem any steep really…
what do you advise me to do in this case?

Thank you!

Hi remapears hope your well!
If it were my graph I would do the following.

  1. Try values between 1e-03 and 1e-02
  2. Check my images in my dataset are in the right classes and the dataset is clean eg. no incorrect images.
  3. I would experiment by doing a few or more epochs of training with different learning rates…

Cheers mrfabulous1 :smiley::smiley:

Thank you @mrfabulous1 for such a response! WIll do! also, specifying the interval of lr to plot gives a better view of the curve.
Hope you are having a fab day! :smiley:
