[D] [R] Ablation Studies in Research - How Many Trials is Enough?

Web: https://www.reddit.com/r/deeplearning/comments/sfsn73/d_r_ablation_studies_in_research_how_many_trials/

I'm currently working on my Masters' Thesis in Deep Learning, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks.

I need to perform multiple isolated ablation studies with different parameters to showcase how they might affect the "algorithm" I am proposing. The only problem is that typically when you are wanting to compare mechanisms, you would run them around 30 times to get a mean and standard deviation. The problem is that I do not have the resources to run that many trials for each …
