Now that we have the TensorFlow code working on a subset of the data, we can package the TensorFlow code up as a Python module and train it on Cloud AI Platform.
Training on Cloud AI Platform requires:
Ensure that the AI Platform API is enabled by going to this link.
The following code edits babyweight/trainer/task.py. You should use add hyperparameters needed by your model through the command-line using the parser
module. Look at how batch_size
is passed to the model in the code below. Do this for the following hyperparameters (defaults in parentheses): train_examples
(5000), eval_steps
(None), pattern
(of).

After moving the code to a package, make sure it works standalone. (Note the --pattern and --train_examples lines so that I am not trying to boil the ocean on the small notebook VM. Change as appropriate for your model).
Even with smaller data, this might take 3-5 minutes in which you won't see any output ...

Once the code works in standalone mode, you can run it on Cloud AI Platform. Change the parameters to the model (-train_examples for example may not be part of your model) appropriately.
Because this is on the entire dataset, it will take a while. The training run took about 2 hours for me. You can monitor the job from the GCP console in the Cloud AI Platform section.

When I ran it, I used train_examples=20000. When training finished, I filtered in the Stackdriver log on the word "dict" and saw that the last line was:
Saving dict for global step 5714290: average_loss = 1.06473, global_step = 5714290, loss = 34882.4, rmse = 1.03186The final RMSE was 1.03 pounds.
This time with tuned parameters (note last line)
