Description:
The xgb_early parameter is currently specific to XGBoost but should be renamed to better reflect its use with CatBoost’s early stopping functionality. I suggest renaming it to a more general name like early_stopping or catboost_early. This change would prevent confusion and enhance the clarity of its purpose when working with different models.
Proposed Change:
Rename xgboost_early to early_stopping or catboost_early.
Update all references in the documentation and code.
Impact:
This will ensure clarity and proper usage for users implementing early stopping with CatBoost.
