AutoSave Rate

Set the rate at which Qnet’s AutoSave feature will store the network during training. This value sets the number of iterations between stores. A rate of 100 will store the network every 100^th iteration. The network is stored in a temporary file during training. If necessary, these network snap shots can be retrieved and saved to permanent network definition files. This is useful when one needs to eliminate overtraining or network divergence conditions. Stored network snap shots can be saved as permanent network definition files using the File/Save AutoSave Network... option. It is recommended that the rate be set to a value that will yield network saves once every 5 to 10 minutes so that training is not unnecessarily slowed and disk space requirements remain reasonable. AutoSave can be disabled by setting the rate to 0.
