Hello,

first thank you for this implementation.

When i call Trainer.fit() with n_jobs greater than one the following error is logged:

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

RuntimeError:

        This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
        child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
        in the main module:

            if __name__ == '__main__':
                freeze_support()
                ...

        The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
        is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.

This doesn't lead to a crash but the fitting is stopped.

pip freeze returns:
