I think Sachin wants to provide something similar to the LossFunction but for the convergence criterion. This would mean that the user can specify a convergence calculator, for example to the optimization framework, which is used from within a iterateWithTermination call. I think this is a good

Sure. Usually, the convergence criterion can be user defined. For example, for a linear regression problem, user might want to run the training until the relative change in squared error falls below a specific threshold, or the weights fail to shift by a relative or absolute percentage.
