"Recycling" broken or unfinished learners

Part 1 (2018)
1

Consider this scenario: After defining a learner and starting learn.fit_one_cycle for 10 epochs, I decide to stop fitting in the middle of epoch 5.

Is there a way to use this 4 and 1/2 epochs that had my learner fitting? If the last unfinished epoch is the problem of recycling this fitting is there a way to remove this incomplete epoch and use the 4 complete epochs in a future fit?

Thanks

No you cannot use the 4 complete epochs in a future fit, you will have to use the half epoch also. If you want you can edit the fit_one_cycle code where you save the model after every epoch and return it if the training is interrupted.
