Multiprocessing Errors
Python throws EOFError and RuntimeError, when decorator is used. Even when `__name__ == __main__` if statement is present it throws PicklingError. This is because multiprocessing is using spawn to create new processes. Some details can be found here: [StackOverFlow Question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41385708/multiprocessing-example-giving-attributeerror)
Either using other method to create new process or changing it to function may resolve the problem.
