Comment on Machine Learning with scikit-learn

Comments

I know what I'm doing tonight. Great idea including sample data to play with in the library! Is that the MNIST data set?

Here's how to get MNIST, from the sklearn docs:

>> from sklearn.datasets import fetch_mldata
>> mnist = fetch_mldata('MNIST original', data_home=custom_data_home)

I think the handwritten digits dataset used in the presentation is just a subset of MNIST; MNIST is 28x28 and the handwritten digits are 8x8.

Here's a link to the other available sample datasets: http://scikit-learn.org/stable/datasets/index.html
