MNIST

class torchvision.datasets.MNIST(root: Union[str, Path], train: bool = True, transform: Optional[Callable] = None, target_transform: Optional[Callable] = None, download: bool = False)

MNIST Dataset.

Parameters:

• root (str or pathlib.Path) – Root directory of dataset where MNIST/raw/train-images-idx3-ubyte and MNIST/raw/t10k-images-idx3-ubyte exist.

• train (bool, optional) – If True, creates dataset from train-images-idx3-ubyte, otherwise from t10k-images-idx3-ubyte.

• download (bool, optional) – If True, downloads the dataset from the internet and puts it in root directory. If dataset is already downloaded, it is not downloaded again.

• transform (callable, optional) – A function/transform that takes in a PIL image and returns a transformed version. E.g, transforms.RandomCrop

• target_transform (callable, optional) – A function/transform that takes in the target and transforms it.

Special-members:

__getitem__(index: int) → Tuple[Any, Any]

Parameters:

index (int) – Index

Returns:

(image, target) where target is index of the target class.

Return type:

tuple
