How to perform k-fold cross validation with tensorflow?

问题

I am following the IRIS example of tensorflow.

My case now is I have all data in a single CSV file, not separated, and I want to apply k-fold cross validation on that data.

I have

data_set = tf.contrib.learn.datasets.base.load_csv(filename="mydata.csv",
                                                   target_dtype=np.int)

How can I perform k-fold cross validation on this dataset with multi-layer neural network as same as IRIS example?

I know this question is old but in case someone is looking to do something similar, expanding on ahmedhosny's answer:

The new tensorflow datasets API has the ability to create dataset objects using python generators, so along with scikit-learn's KFold one option can be to create a dataset from the KFold.split() generator:

import numpy as np

from sklearn.model_selection import LeaveOneOut,KFold

import tensorflow as tf
import tensorflow.contrib.eager as tfe
tf.enable_eager_execution()

from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
data = load_iris()
X=data['data']
y=data['target']

def make_dataset(X_data,y_data,n_splits):

    def gen():
        for train_index, test_index in KFold(n_splits).split(X_data):
            X_train, X_test = X_data[train_index], X_data[test_index]
            y_train, y_test = y_data[train_index], y_data[test_index]
            yield X_train,y_train,X_test,y_test

    return tf.data.Dataset.from_generator(gen, (tf.float64,tf.float64,tf.float64,tf.float64))

dataset=make_dataset(X,y,10)

Then one can iterate through the dataset either in the graph based tensorflow or using eager execution. Using eager execution:

for X_train,y_train,X_test,y_test in tfe.Iterator(dataset):
    ....

NN's are usually used with large datasets where CV is not used - and very expensive. In the case of IRIS (50 samples for each species), you probably need it.. why not use scikit-learn with different random seeds to split your training and testing?

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.33, random_state=42)

for k in kfold:

split data differently passing a different value to "random_state"
learn the net using _train
test using _test

If you dont like the random seed and want a more structured k-fold split, you can use this taken from here.

from sklearn.model_selection import KFold, cross_val_score
X = ["a", "a", "b", "c", "c", "c"]
k_fold = KFold(n_splits=3)
for train_indices, test_indices in k_fold.split(X):
    print('Train: %s | test: %s' % (train_indices, test_indices))
Train: [2 3 4 5] | test: [0 1]
Train: [0 1 4 5] | test: [2 3]
Train: [0 1 2 3] | test: [4 5]
