Research direction

The report names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing reward-model training at step 2 with the custom and public datasets, recording what follows the PyTorch extensions-root message and comparing it with the successful step 1 run. Done means identifying the cause of the stall and verifying a resolution.

I am training a reward model on my own dataset, and it gets stuck after loading the content mentioned above, without any response for a long time. Previously, I successfully ran it on a public dataset, but now it also gets stuck at step 2 on the public dataset. The training for step 1 on my own dataset was successfully completed. Why is this happening?
