DataLoader

DataLoader(data...; batchsize=1, shuffle=false, partial=true)

An object that iterates over mini-batches of data, each mini-batch containing batchsize observations (except possibly the last one).

Takes as input one or more data tensors, e.g. X in unsupervised learning, X and Y in supervised learning. The last dimension in each tensor is considered to be the observation dimension.

If shuffle=true, shuffles the observations each time iterations are re-started. If partial=false, drops the last mini-batch if it is smaller than the batchsize.

Example usage:

Xtrain = rand(10, 100)
dtrain = DataLoader(Xtrain, batchsize=2) 
# iterate over 50 mini-batches
for x in dtrain: 
    @assert size(x) == (10, 2)
    ...
end

Xtrain = rand(10, 100)
Ytrain = rand(100)
dtrain = DataLoader(Xtrain, Ytrain, batchsize=2, shuffle=true) 
for epoch in 1:100
    for (x, y) in dtrain: 
        @assert size(x) == (10, 2)
        @assert size(y) == (2,)
        ...
    end
end

# train for 10 epochs
