Description

Improved Regularization of Convolutional Neural Networks with Cutout proposes a simple and effective method for regularization. I think it would fit greatly in the torchvision.transforms toolbox, and am willing to contribute an implementation with a proper test, if that's okay.

Research direction

The proposal points to the torchvision.transforms toolbox and the linked Cutout paper; start by reading the paper and examining the existing transform entry point. Done means adding a Cutout implementation with a proper test, as proposed in the issue.
