C4W2_Assignment_2 grading not happening

Hi,

Even after passing all the tests on submitting the assignment, the grader takes very long (~10 minutes) & then shows the below error every time.

Also, the cell code for ‘fine_tune_epochs’ stops working after 6th epoch & then, the kernel dies.

This particular cell is optional but regardless of that, the grader is not giving the score as 99% passed even though all the graded cells shows ‘All tests passed’.

It would be great if anyone can provide expertise on the same.

Note: I am running the Jupyter notebook in the Deep Learning platform.

Thanks.

One thing that is worth a try is clearing your output before you submit. The size of the notebook increases quite a bit when you run the training and the extra data slows everything down and maybe caused the grader to time out. The point is that the grader does not need to see your output: it only needs to call your functions and check the return values. Please try this and let us know if it makes a difference:

Kernel -> Restart and Clear Output
Save
Submit

That “Save” in there is important (click the little floppy disk icon and make sure it completes) because I’m not sure that clicking Submit does an automatic save. It’s not a good idea to assume that in general.
