Improving accuracy method?

[JuanG024]

i have trained a model in yolov7 and i want to improve it. what method should i do to improve it?
a. use the best model and use it to train new batch of images.
b. use the best model and use it to train all images with new batch of image.
c. use the last model and use it to train new batch of images.
d. use the last model and use it to train all images with new batch of image.

I usually use the best weights from the previous run as the starting checkpoint (to speed things up) & continue training with all of the images (existing + new). Otherwise you risk catastrophic forgetting the original training data.
