I get the following log lines while training tesseract:

At iteration 303839/569300/573167, Mean rms=0.777%, delta=2.588%, char train=7.443%, word train=13.343%, skip ratio=0.6%,  wrote checkpoint.

What do the first three numbers mean? Which is the real iteration number? And what are the others mean?

Ok, it says it’s learning iteration, training iteration and sample iteration respectively. But what do those terms mean? How can one deduce an epoch?

I am looking for the same answer. What are learning iteration, training iteration, and sample iteration?

Epoch size depends on your training data.  If you have 1000 lines of training data, then 1 epoch is 1000 iterations. If you have 50000 lines of training text, 1 epoch is 50000 iterations.
