In this section, we will combine everything we have illustrated so far and create a classifier for the iris dataset.
Combining everything together
Getting ready
The iris dataset is described in more detail in the Working with data sources recipe in Chapter 1, Getting Started with TensorFlow. We will load this data and make a simple binary classifier to predict whether a flower is the species Iris setosa or not. To be clear, this dataset has three species, but we will only predict whether a flower is a single species, I. setosa or not, giving us a binary classifier. We will start by loading the libraries and data, then transform the target accordingly.
