How Do You Handle Ablation Studies When the Original Model Is Already Trained?[R]

Mirrored from r/MachineLearning for archival readability. Support the source by reading on the original site.

I'm running into an issue with an ablation study for a paper I'm preparing. I trained a model. The model achieved my best result, and I saved the trained checkpoint (.pth file). Now my supervisor wants me to perform an ablation study by removing components and how it impacts the accuracy. My concern is that if I retrain from scratch, the accuracies will not exactly match the original run due to randomness, different seeds, etc. is there any way i can do the ablation study without retraining? I'd appreciate hearing how others have handled this situation in publications or thesis work. please help me out
