"Building powerful image classification models using very little data"
from blog.keras.io.
It uses data that can be downloaded at:

In our setup, we:
- created a data/ folder
- created train/ and validation/ subfolders inside data/
- created cats/ and dogs/ subfolders inside train/ and validation/
- put the cat pictures index 0-999 in data/train/cats
