You could use torchvision.dataset.ImageFolder or create a custom Dataset to load your images.

Imagine that you have a folder called my_directory, in this folder you have 2 folders (cat - dog) that contains images of cat and dogs.

you can load theses images like this :

train_data = datasets.ImageFolder('my_directory', transform=transform)

And ImageFolder will automatically assigne the label cat and dog to the right images.
