Hi,

I’ve been learning to finetune a model using this [guide](https://huggingface.co/learn/nlp-course/chapter3/3). Now, for my thesis project I want to access the logits for the training samples at the end of every epoch, so preferably in the `compute-metrics` function. This function gets `eval-preds`, but is there anyway to have it get access to something like `train-preds`? If it’s unclear, I’m looking to log the logits of every training sample at the end of every epoch.

Thanks in advance!
