[sparshgarg23]

Environment Details

Please indicate the following details about the environment in which you found the bug:

• CTGAN version:0.5.0
• Python version:3.9.7
• Operating System:windows 10

Error Description

While running CTGAN demo on my system,I encountered the following warning
ConvergenceWarning: Initialization 1 did not converge. Try different init parameters, or increase max_iter, tol or check for degenerate data.
warnings.warn('Initialization %d did not converge.

Steps to reproduce

Use pip install ctgan
Execute demo code on windows operaitng system

python ctgan_demo.py

Hi @sparshgarg23, the convergence warnings may indicate that the model having some trouble with mathematical optimization for that particular epoch. I see this frequently. It is not indicative of a bug and it usually does not correspond to any degradation in synthetic data quality.

Let's repurpose this issue as a feature request to investigate such warnings and figure out if we can safely silence them so they are not alarming during the fitting phase.
