In tfdatasets: Interface to 'TensorFlow' Datasets

The TensorFlow Dataset API provides various facilities for creating scalable input pipelines for TensorFlow models, including:

Reading data from a variety of formats including CSV files and TFRecords files (the standard binary format for TensorFlow training data).
Transforming datasets in a variety of ways including mapping arbitrary functions against them.
Shuffling, batching, and repeating datasets over a number of epochs.
Streaming interface to data for reading arbitrarily large datasets.
Reading and transforming data are TensorFlow graph operations, so are executed in C++ and in parallel with model training.

The R interface to TensorFlow datasets provides access to the Dataset API, including high-level convenience functions for easy integration with the keras package.
