Runs the custom training job.

Distributed Training Support: If replica count = 1 then one chief replica will be provisioned. If replica_count > 1 the remainder will be provisioned as a worker replica pool. ie: replica_count = 10 will result in 1 chief and 9 workers All replicas have same machine_type, accelerator_type, and accelerator_count

If training on a Vertex AI dataset, you can use one of the following split configurations: Data fraction splits: Any of training_fraction_split, validation_fraction_split and test_fraction_split may optionally be provided, they must sum to up to 1. If the provided ones sum to less than 1, the remainder is assigned to sets as decided by Vertex AI. If none of the fractions are set, by default roughly 80% of data will be used for training, 10% for validation, and 10% for test.

Data filter splits:
Assigns input data to training, validation, and test sets
based on the given filters, data pieces not matched by any
filter are ignored. Currently only supported for Datasets
containing DataItems.
If any of the filters in this message are to match nothing, then
they can be set as '-' (the minus sign).
If using filter splits, all of ``training_filter_split``, ``validation_filter_split`` and
``test_filter_split`` must be provided.
Supported only for unstructured Datasets.

Predefined splits:
Assigns input data to training, validation, and test sets based on the value of a provided key.
If using predefined splits, ``predefined_split_column_name`` must be provided.
Supported only for tabular Datasets.

Timestamp splits:
Assigns input data to training, validation, and test sets
based on a provided timestamps. The youngest data pieces are
assigned to training set, next to validation set, and the oldest
to the test set.
Supported only for tabular Datasets.
Parameters

Only Annotations that both match this schema and belong to DataItems not ignored by the split method are used in respectively training, validation or test role, depending on the role of the DataItem they are on.
