Determine if training should stop based on validation loss history.
Early stopping is a regularization technique that stops training when the model stops improving on a validation set. This prevents overfitting to the training data.
The rule: stop if validation loss hasn't improved for patience consecutive epochs.
Write a function should_stop(history_losses, patience) that returns True if training should stop.
Return a boolean: True if should stop, False otherwise.
history_losses=[5.0, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2], patience=2
True
Best loss was 4.0 at index 1. Current index is 3. Epochs since best: 3-1=2. Since 2 >= patience(2), return True.
