      "content": "<p>Depends on the used loss function, but generally speaking (I assume you are using BCE/CE) both losses converging to 0 sounds like something impossible to achieve. You would need to have a perfect model that never makes mistakes, always predicting exactly 0.0 or 1.0 without any numbers after the decimal points. Furthermore, if the validation loss converges to the same value as training loss, it would mean that your model generalizes incredibly well (or your validation data is wrong). Keep in mind that the competition dataset is very small and it is difficult to train a good model with this amount of data.</p>",
