To load CSV files in a TensorFlow program, you can follow these steps:


Step 1: Import Required Libraries

1
2
import tensorflow as tf
import pandas as pd


Step 2: Read CSV File

1
df = pd.read_csv('your_file.csv')


Step 3: Extract Features and Labels

1
2
features = df.iloc[:, :-1] # Extract all columns except the last one
labels = df.iloc[:, -1] # Extract only the last column


Step 4: Convert Data to TensorFlow Tensors

1
2
features_tensor = tf.convert_to_tensor(features.values)
labels_tensor = tf.convert_to_tensor(labels.values)


Step 5: Create a TensorFlow Dataset

1
dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices((features_tensor, labels_tensor))


Now you can use the created dataset for further processing, such as model training, validation, or testing.

Additionally, you may also want to preprocess, normalize, or scale the data before creating the TensorFlow dataset. Here's an example of adding data normalization before creating the dataset:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
# Normalize the features using min-max scaling
normalized_features = (features - features.min()) / (features.max() - features.min())

# Convert normalized data to TensorFlow tensors
normalized_features_tensor = tf.convert_to_tensor(normalized_features.values)

# Create TensorFlow Dataset with normalized data
normalized_dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices((normalized_features_tensor, labels_tensor))


This way, you can preprocess the data before creating the dataset and ensure that the data is ready for training your TensorFlow models.
