-In that folder, you'll also find the `config.json` file that we recommend using to provide parameters for training, evaluation, and scoring scripts. The sample parameter that `diabetes_regression` uses is the ridge regression [*alpha* hyperparameter](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.linear_model.Ridge.html). We don't provide any serializers for this config file.
