Just specify the network, loss function and the data you want to train on. You don't need to worry about the boiler plate code to loop through the dataset in batches (often called as 'training loop'). Advanced users can train with bespoke training loops, and many of these use cases will be covered by the Fit API. + +To demonstrate the Fit API, you will train an image classification model using the [ResNet-18](https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385) neural network architecture. The model will be trained using the [Fashion-MNIST dataset](https://research.zalando.com/welcome/mission/research-projects/fashion-mnist/). + +## Prerequisites + +To complete this tutorial, you will need: + +- [MXNet](https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/install/#overview) (The version of MXNet will be >= 1.5.0, you can use `pip install mxnet --pre` to get the latest pip package or build from source with master, refer to [MXNet installation](http://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/versions/master/install/index.html?platform=Linux&language=Python&processor=CPU) Review comment: We can update this now since 1.5 is out? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
