The use_run_dir()
function establishes a unique run directory (by default
in a sub-directory named "runs") and stores it's value for saving various
artifacts of training (e.g. model checkpoints, tensorflow logs, etc.).
The run_dir()
function returns the current run directory (NULL
if none
yet established).
If you utilize the automatic creation of run directories within the "runs"
directory then you can use the latest_run()
and latest_runs()
functions
to get the path(s) to the most recently created run directories and the
clean_runs()
function to remove previously created run directories.
