        "\nNeural Networks\n===============\n\nNeural networks can be constructed using the ``torch.nn`` package.\n\nNow that you had a glimpse of ``autograd``, ``nn`` depends on\n``autograd`` to define models and differentiate them.\nAn ``nn.Module`` contains layers, and a method ``forward(input)``\\ that\nreturns the ``output``.\n\nFor example, look at this network that classfies digit images:\n\n.. figure:: /_static/img/mnist.png\n   :alt: convnet\n\n   convnet\n\nIt is a simple feed-forward network. It takes the input, feeds it\nthrough several layers one after the other, and then finally gives the\noutput.\n\nA typical training procedure for a neural network is as follows:\n\n- Define the neural network that has some learnable parameters (or\n  weights)\n- Iterate over a dataset of inputs\n- Process input through the network\n- Compute the loss (how far is the output from being correct)\n- Propagate gradients back into the network\u2019s parameters\n- Update the weights of the network, typically using a simple update rule:\n  ``weight = weight - learning_rate * gradient``\n\nDefine the network\n------------------\n\nLet\u2019s define this network:\n\n"

Has the same API as a ``Tensor``, with\n     some additions like ``backward()``. Also *holds the gradient*\n     w.r.t. the tensor.\n  -  ``nn.Module`` - Neural network module. *Convenient way of\n     encapsulating parameters*, with helpers for moving them to GPU,\n     exporting, loading, etc.\n  -  ``nn.Parameter`` - A kind of Variable, that is *automatically\n     registered as a parameter when assigned as an attribute to a*\n     ``Module``.\n  -  ``autograd.Function`` - Implements *forward and backward definitions\n     of an autograd operation*. Every ``Variable`` operation, creates at\n     least a single ``Function`` node, that connects to functions that\n     created a ``Variable`` and *encodes its history**.\n\n**At this point, we covered:**\n  -  Defining a neural network\n  -  Processing inputs and calling backward.\n\n**Still Left:**\n  -  Computing the loss\n  -  Updating the weights of the network\n\nLoss Function\n-------------\nA loss function takes the (output, target) pair of inputs, and computes a\nvalue that estimates how far away the output is from the target.\n\nThere are several different\n`loss functions <http://pytorch.org/docs/nn.html#loss-functions>`_ under the\nnn package .\nA simple loss is: ``nn.MSELoss`` which computes the mean-squared error\nbetween the input and the target.\n\nFor example:\n\n"
