Machine Learning in Python: Iris Classification -- Part 1 General Description: In this video, we begin by showcasing how to build an iris classification model, that is, a machine learning model that will allow us to classify species of iris flowers. This application will introduce many rudimentary features and concepts of machine learning and is a good use case for these types of models. Use case: Botanist wants to determine the species of an iris flower based on characteristics of that flower. For instance attributes including petal length, width, etc. are the "features" that determine the classification of a given iris flower. Part 1 Description: We install the sklearn module and make use of the built-in iris dataset provided to us by sklearn. We look at the data and describe how it is formatted within the Python dictionary that it is stored in. This video is part of a series on Machine Learning in Python.
