Solve out of memory problem

Hello I have laptop, Dell precision M4800, processor Intel core i7 , 2.8GHz , RAM 16 GB. Then, I lntall SSD hard and 8 GB Ram.

When I use it for classification using large scale data, It runs out of memory.

I tried to solve this problem by increasing system swap space, changing double variables to single precision, clear unused variables But the problem still appears.

Is there another solutions I can use to solve this problem

Thanks in advance

This shows that the dataset is too large to fit in the available RAM. The solution is not to read all dataset at once. Instead, create an image datastore: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/matlab.io.datastore.imagedatastore.html. Functions such as trainNetwork() accept image datastore as input.
