Intelligent Mobile Projects with TensorFlow

Overview of this book

As a developer, you always need to keep an eye out and be ready for what will be trending soon, while also focusing on what's trending currently. So, what's better than learning about the integration of the best of both worlds, the present and the future? Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely regarded as the next big thing after mobile, and Google's TensorFlow is the leading open source machine learning framework, the hottest branch of AI. This book covers more than 10 complete iOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi apps powered by TensorFlow and built from scratch, running all kinds of cool TensorFlow models offline on-device: from computer vision, speech and language processing to generative adversarial networks and AlphaZero-like deep reinforcement learning. You’ll learn how to use or retrain existing TensorFlow models, build your own models, and develop intelligent mobile apps running those TensorFlow models. You'll learn how to quickly build such apps with step-by-step tutorials and how to avoid many pitfalls in the process with lots of hard-earned troubleshooting tips.

Using a simple speech recognition model in iOS with Swift

We created a Swift-based iOS app that uses the TensorFlow pod in Chapter 2, Classifying Images with Transfer Learning. Let's now create a new Swift app that uses the TensorFlow iOS libraries we manually built in the last section and use the speech commands model in our Swift app:

  1. Create a new Single View iOS project from Xcode, and set up the project in the same way as steps 1 and 2 in the previous section, except set the Language as Swift.
  2. Select Xcode File | New | File ... and select Objective-C File. Enter the name RunInference. You'll see a message box asking you "Would you like to configure an Objective-C bridging header?" Click the Create Bridging Header. Rename the file RunInference.m to RunInfence.mm as we'll mix our C, C++, and Objective-C code to do post-recording audio processing and...
