discrete branch: add a compelling example of discretization's benefits
See original GitHub issueWe recently merged a discretizing transformer into the discrete
branch (see diff between that branch and master). Before merging it into master, we’d like a compelling example for our example gallery showing an application of machine learning where discretized features are particularly useful.
To dear contributor: Make sure to submit a pull request to the discrete
branch.

@jnothman Regret me if the example is not good since I’m not an expert at machine learning 😃 The score is averaged over folds.
Since our discretization is naive, we cannot expect big improve. The experiment is designed mainly based on this paper (citation > 2000) and other materails. Here is part of the main code:
@jnothman (Sorry for the repeatedly update) Here is my plan for the example, please have a look. Thanks 😃 Dataset: iris (only use two features) (1)plot the data before and after discretization
(2)train a classifier using the data before and after discretization and compare the result
