#' Useful example for illustrating generative models based on MNIST data
#' 
#' We only include a randomly selected set of 1s, 2s and 7s along with the two predictors based on the 
#' proportion of dark pixels in the upper left and lower right quadrants respectively. The dataset is divided into 
#' training and test sets.

#'
#' \itemize{
#' \item train. A data frame containing  training data: labels and predictors.
#' \item test. A data frame containing  test data: labels and predictors.
#' \item index_train. The index of the original mnist training data used for the training set.
#' \item index_test. The index of the original mnist test data used for the test set.
