Implementing an image classifier

The code bundle for this chapter contains an app called ImageAnalyzer. This app uses an image picker to allow a user to select an image from their photo library to use it as an input for the image classifier you will implement. Open the project and explore it for a little bit to see what it does and how it works. Use the starter project if you want to follow along with the rest of this section.
