# earlyStoppingIterationCount

The number of iterations to use when evaluating whether to stop early.

## Declaration

```swift
var earlyStoppingIterationCount: Int
```

## Discussion

Discussion The fitted method will stop if no significant progress is made for this many iterations. Significant progress happens when the validation error decreases by at least convergenceThreshold. note: Early stopping only happens when using the fitted method with validation data.
