|
||||
|
||||
## Issues Identified
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Issues
|
||||
1. **Gradient Instability**: Train Loss = NaN (all epochs)
|
||||
- **Root Cause**: Likely exploding gradients or numerical instability
|
||||
- **Solution**: Implement gradient clipping, reduce learning rate
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Loss Computation**: Val Loss alternates between NaN and 0.000000
|
||||
- **Root Cause**: Possible division by zero or inf propagation
|
||||
- **Solution**: Add epsilon to denominator, check for inf/nan in forward pass
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Feature Mismatch Warning**: "TFT configured with 245 features, expected 225"
|
||||
- **Root Cause**: Hardcoded 245 in TFT model vs. 225 actual features
|
||||
- **Impact**: Non-blocking warning (model auto-adjusts)
|
||||
- **Solution**: Update TFT model to use 225 features
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-Critical Observations
|
||||
- GPU memory usage is VERY low (335MB peak)
|
||||
- Training speed is acceptable (~2.7 min/epoch)
|
||||
- No OOM errors or crashes
|
||||
- Checkpoint saving works correctly
|
||||
- CUDA device detection works
|
||||

|
||||
## Optimal Configuration for RTX 3050 Ti
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended Config for Production Training
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Conservative config (proven safe)
|
||||
cargo run -p ml --example train_tft_dbn --release -- \
|
||||
--epochs 50 \
|
||||
--batch-size 8 \
|
||||
--hidden-dim 64 \
|
||||
--num-attention-heads 4 \
|
||||
--lookback-window 30 \
|
||||
--forecast-horizon 10 \
|
||||
--learning-rate 0.0001 # REDUCED for stability
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Estimated Resource Usage
|
||||
- **GPU Memory**: ~800MB-1GB (20-25% of 4GB)
|
||||
- **Training Time**: ~5-7 min/epoch × 50 epochs = **4-6 hours total**
|
||||
- **Checkpoint Size**: ~40-50MB per epoch
|
||||
- **Total Disk**: ~2-2.5GB for all checkpoints
|
||||
|
||||
### Aggressive Config (use with caution)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Max config before OOM risk
|
||||
cargo run -p ml --example train_tft_dbn --release -- \
|
||||
--epochs 50 \
|
||||
--batch-size 16 \
|
||||
--hidden-dim 128 \
|
||||
--num-attention-heads 4 \
|
||||
--lookback-window 40 \
|
||||
--forecast-horizon 10 \
|
||||
--learning-rate 0.0001
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Estimated Resource Usage (Aggressive)
|
||||
- **GPU Memory**: ~1.5-2GB (40-50% of 4GB)
|
||||
- **Training Time**: ~8-10 min/epoch × 50 epochs = **7-8 hours total**
|
||||
- **Risk**: Higher OOM risk, monitor nvidia-smi during training

|
||||
## Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
### For Initial Training (NOW)
|
||||
1. **Use local RTX 3050 Ti with conservative config**
|
||||
- Batch size: 8
|
||||
- Hidden dim: 64
|
||||
- Attention heads: 4
|
||||
- Lookback: 30
|
||||
- Forecast horizon: 10
|
||||
- Learning rate: 0.0001 (REDUCED)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Fix gradient instability issues FIRST**
|
||||
- Implement gradient clipping (max_norm=1.0)
|
||||
- Add loss computation validation (check for inf/nan)
|
||||
- Reduce learning rate from 0.001 to 0.0001
|
||||
- Add warmup period (first 5 epochs with 0.1x learning rate)
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Monitor training closely**
|
||||
- Watch nvidia-smi for memory usage
|
||||
- Track loss curves for NaN issues
|
||||
- Save checkpoints every 10 epochs
|
||||
- Expected time: 4-6 hours for 50 epochs
|
||||
|
||||
### For Production Training (LATER)
|
||||
1. **If local training succeeds**: Continue using RTX 3050 Ti
|
||||
- Cost-effective for regular retraining
|
||||
- No cloud setup overhead
|
||||
- Data stays local (security benefit)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **If local training too slow**: Consider cloud GPU
|
||||
- Use AWS EC2 g4dn.xlarge for critical training runs
|
||||
- Cost: ~$1-2 per training run
|
||||
- Reserve for full 90-180 day dataset training
|
||||
|
||||
3. **If experimenting with larger models**: Use cloud GPU
|
||||
- Batch size >32
|
||||
- Hidden dim >256
|
||||
- Multi-GPU training
|
||||
- Hyperparameter tuning (multiple runs)
|
||||

## Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
**TFT DOES NOT REQUIRE CLOUD GPU for initial training and experimentation.**
|
||||
|
||||
The RTX 3050 Ti (4GB VRAM) can successfully train TFT with:
|
||||
- **Conservative config**: batch_size=8, hidden_dim=64 (recommended)
|
||||
- **GPU memory usage**: ~800MB-1GB (safe margin)
|
||||
- **Training time**: 4-6 hours for 50 epochs (acceptable)
|
||||
- **Cost**: $0 (no cloud fees)
|
||||
|
||||
**However, gradient instability issues MUST be fixed before production training:**
|
||||
- Implement gradient clipping
|
||||
- Reduce learning rate
|
||||
- Add loss validation
|
||||
- Fix feature count mismatch warning
|
||||
|
||||
**Cloud GPU recommendation**: OPTIONAL, not required. Consider only if:
|
||||
1. Local training too slow for your timeline
|
||||
2. Experimenting with larger models (batch >32, hidden >256)
|
||||
3. Running hyperparameter tuning (multiple training runs)
|
||||
|
||||
**Cost-benefit**: Local RTX 3050 Ti saves ~$10-50/month in cloud costs for regular retraining.
|
||||
|
