• run.py contains a script utilizing this trainer for training a very simple MNIST module.

Run

To run this example, call python run.py

• lightning
• torchmetrics
• torch
• torchvision
• tqdm

to install them with the appropriate versions run:

pip install "lightning>=2.0" "torchmetrics>=0.11" "torchvision>=0.14" "torch>=1.13" tqdm
