The COMPEL Glossary Graph visualizes relationships between framework terminology, showing how concepts interconnect across domains, stages, and pillars. Term nodes cluster by pillar affiliation while cross-references reveal semantic dependencies — for example, how risk appetite connects to control effectiveness, model governance, and assurance requirements. This network representation helps practitioners navigate the framework vocabulary and understand that COMPEL terminology forms a coherent conceptual system rather than isolated definitions.
COMPEL Glossary / hyperparameter-search
Hyperparameter search
Structured or randomized exploration over model-configuration space — learning rate, depth, regularization strength, and similar — to find a configuration meeting a target criterion.
What this means in practice
Random search is preferred over grid search for higher-dimensional spaces; Bayesian and population-based methods are further refinements.
Synonyms
hyperparameter optimization , HPO , hyperparameter tuning

- Offline evaluation — Assessment of an AI system against static datasets — training hold-out, validation set, benchmark corpus — without exposure to live user traffic.
- Experiment tracking — The infrastructure and practice of recording artifacts, metrics, parameters, environment, and lineage for every experiment run — enabling later reproduction, comparison across runs, and audit.
- Reproducibility — The property that re-running an experiment with the same code, data, and configuration produces the same results within declared tolerance.
