training dataset

[SillyPuffo]

hi 1zb, you did a great code! i tried to train your model. but i am confused with the training dataset. I saw the paper use 216 million images. but i can't train model using this too large dataset. would you mind tell me which kind of dataset you used or how many images you used for training. thanks!

hi khawar,sorry to bother you,but i have been confused by a qustion for long time.The question is that if i trained this network with 300 epochs,and then i need to encode and decode with one checkpoint model, how do i choose the best checkpoint model from 300 checkpoint models?Is the 300th definitely best?
