Evaluating model accuracy on validation dataset

Now it's your turn to monitor model accuracy with a validation data set. A model definition has been provided as model. Your job is to add the code to compile it and then fit it. You'll check the validation score in each epoch.

  • Compile your model using 'adam' as the optimizer and 'categorical_crossentropy' for the loss. To see what fraction of predictions are correct (the accuracy) in each epoch, specify the additional keyword argument metrics=['accuracy'] in model.compile().
  • Fit the model using the predictors and target. Create a validation split of 30% (or 0.3). This will be reported in each epoch.
