Datasets in Chapter 15 Exercises are not found
The datasets mentioned in questions 9 and 10 of chapter 15 are not found. For SketchRNN there are four variants of the dataset but tensorflow-datasets have only the quickdraw_bitmap dataset which I think it is more suitable for image classification rather than sequence. Also, the link in question 10 (https://homl.info/bach) yield to 404 page not found.
the bach chorales is here https://github.com/ageron/handson-ml2/tree/master/datasets/jsb_chorales
Is the quickdraw_bitmap dataset supposed to be 36 GB, because I can't fit that on my computer.
Hi @uzi0espil ,
Thanks for your question. I'm sorry about the SketchRNN dataset issue, there was a TFDS Pull Request that seemed ready to merge, about a year ago, and the discussions were looking good, so I assumed it would be included in a matter of weeks, and I decided to include it in the book. Unfortunately this PR hasn't been merged yet, I should have double-checked before the book came out (I usually wrote a TODO:CHECK for myself every time I wrote about something that was supposed to be released later, but in this case I forgot, probably because it was in an exercise).
Anyway, the good news is that the dataset is available as convenient TFRecords file. I uploaded the solutions to the exercises in chapter 15, in case you want to take a look.
I'll leave this issue open until the SketchRNN dataset is available in TFDS... hopefully one day! ;-)
