    ----------
    dataset : Dataset
        Source dataset. Note that numpy and mxnet arrays can be directly used
        as a Dataset.
    batch_size : int
        Size of mini-batch.
    shuffle : bool
        Whether to shuffle the samples.
    sampler : Sampler
        The sampler to use. Either specify sampler or shuffle, not both.
    last_batch : {'keep', 'discard', 'rollover'}
        How to handle the last batch if batch_size does not evenly divide
        `len(dataset)`.

        keep - A batch with less samples than previous batches is returned.
        discard - The last batch is discarded if its incomplete.
        rollover - The remaining samples are rolled over to the next epoch.
    batch_sampler : Sampler
        A sampler that returns mini-batches. Do not specify batch_size,
        shuffle, sampler, and last_batch if batch_sampler is specified.

        Callback function to allow users to specify how to merge samples

    num_workers : int, default 0

class DataLoader(object):
    """Loads data from a dataset and returns mini-batches of data.

    Parameters
    ----------
    dataset : Dataset
        Source dataset. Note that numpy and mxnet arrays can be directly used
        as a Dataset.
    batch_size : int
        Size of mini-batch.
    shuffle : bool
        Whether to shuffle the samples.
    sampler : Sampler
        The sampler to use. Either specify sampler or shuffle, not both.
    last_batch : {'keep', 'discard', 'rollover'}
        How to handle the last batch if batch_size does not evenly divide
        `len(dataset)`.

        keep - A batch with less samples than previous batches is returned.
        discard - The last batch is discarded if its incomplete.
        rollover - The remaining samples are rolled over to the next epoch.
    batch_sampler : Sampler
        A sampler that returns mini-batches. Do not specify batch_size,
        shuffle, sampler, and last_batch if batch_sampler is specified.
    batchify_fn : callable
        Callback function to allow users to specify how to merge samples
        into a batch. Defaults to `default_batchify_fn`::

            def default_batchify_fn(data):
                if isinstance(data[0], nd.NDArray):
                    return nd.stack(*data)
                elif isinstance(data[0], tuple):
                    data = zip(*data)
                    return [default_batchify_fn(i) for i in data]
                else:
                    data = np.asarray(data)
                    return nd.array(data, dtype=data.dtype)

    num_workers : int, default 0
        The number of multiprocessing workers to use for data preprocessing.
    pin_memory : boolean, default False
        If ``True``, the dataloader will copy NDArrays into pinned memory
        before returning them. Copying from CPU pinned memory to GPU is faster
        than from normal CPU memory.
    pin_device_id : int, default 0
        The device id to use for allocating pinned memory if pin_memory is ``True``
    prefetch : int, default is `num_workers * 2`
        The number of prefetching batches only works if `num_workers` > 0.
        If `prefetch` > 0, it allow worker process to prefetch certain batches before
        acquiring data from iterators.
        Note that using large prefetching batch will provide smoother bootstrapping performance,
        but will consume more shared_memory. Using smaller number may forfeit the purpose of using
        multiple worker processes, try reduce `num_workers` in this case.
        By default it defaults to `num_workers * 2`.
    thread_pool : bool, default False
        If ``True``, use threading pool instead of multiprocessing pool. Using threadpool
        can avoid shared memory usage. If `DataLoader` is more IO bounded or GIL is not a killing
        problem, threadpool version may achieve better performance than multiprocessing.
