+#' Early stopping callback
+#'
+#' Stops training when a monitored metric stops improving
+#'
+#' @param monitor A string in the format `<set>_<metric>` where `<set>` can be
+#'  'train' or 'valid' and `<metric>` can be the abbreviation of any metric
+#'  that you are tracking during training.
+#' @param min_delta Minimum improvement to reset the patience counter.
+#' @param patience Number of epochs without improving until stoping training.
+#' @param mode Specifies the direction that is considered an improvement. By default
+#'  'min' is used. Can also be 'max' (higher is better) and 'zero'
+#'  (closer to zero is better).
+#' @param baseline An initial value that will be used as the best seen value
+#'  in the begining. Model will stopm training if no better than baseline value
+#'  is found in the first `patience` epochs.
+#'
+#' @note
+#' This callback adds a `on_early_stopping` callback that can be used to
+#' call callbacks after as soon as the model stopped training.
+#'
+#' @note
+#' If `verbose=TRUE` in [fit.luz_module_generator()] a message is printed when
+#' early stopping.
+#'
+#' @returns
+#' A `luz_callback` that does early stopping.
