'Plots' not a recognized parameter in deep learning network training

I'm trying to show the progress of my deep learning network training via plots. When adding 'Plots','training-progress',... to my trainingOptions I get following error: * Error using nnet.cnn.TrainingOptionsSGDM.parseInputArguments (line 176) 'Plots' is not a recognized parameter. For a list of valid name-value pair arguments, see the documentation for this function.* Does anybody have an idea why this happens? Here are all my trainingOptions: options = trainingOptions('sgdm',... 'MiniBatchSize',12,... 'MaxEpochs',3, ... 'ExecutionEnvironment','gpu',... 'Plots','training-progress',... 'Verbose',false);

This may be MATLAB version related. Which version of MATLAB are you trying to execute this on?

The ability to monitor training progress with plots using the 'Plots' Name-Value pair was introduced in MATLAB R2017b.

Thanks for the reply. I'm currently using version R2017a so that clarifies why it's not working in my code. Thank you.
