Does low loss imply both understand the dataset equally good but the variance aka generalisation is better in the one with high mAp

Thanks for sharing these links. I found https://github.com/aleju/imgaug and https://github.com/mdbloice/Augmentor to be good when you have 2D data. My challenge is that I have x,y and depth(Z) now all image transformations in colour space can't be applied to depth space so which ones would work best and any pointers on tooling around them would be helpful.

It'skept behind the doors but would be interesting to understand from someone who has visited the store.
