Fit API reduces the complexity and amount of boiler plate code required to train a model, provides an easy to use and a powerful API. + +To demonstrate the Fit API, this tutorial will train an Image Classification model using the [AlexNet](https://arxiv.org/abs/1404.5997) architecture for the neural network. 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) +- [GluonCV](https://gluon-cv.mxnet.io) Review comment: Okay.
