Overview of this book

Machine learning presents an entirely unique opportunity in software development. It allows smartphones to produce an enormous amount of useful data that can be mined, analyzed, and used to make predictions. This book will help you master machine learning for mobile devices with easy-to-follow, practical examples. You will begin with an introduction to machine learning on mobiles and grasp the fundamentals so you become well-acquainted with the subject. You will master supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms, and then learn how to build a machine learning model using mobile-based libraries such as Core ML, TensorFlow Lite, ML Kit, and Fritz on Android and iOS platforms. In doing so, you will also tackle some common and not-so-common machine learning problems with regard to Computer Vision and other real-world domains. By the end of this book, you will have explored machine learning in depth and implemented on-device machine learning with ease, thereby gaining a thorough understanding of how to run, create, and build real-time machine-learning applications on your mobile devices.

Handwritten digit recognition solution


Previously, we created an application that helped us get insights into the implementation of a neural network image recognition program using the TensorFlow model for mobile devices. Now, we will create another application that uses the concept of a neural network and Keras for an image recognition program of handwritten digits. In this section, we will create an application for a handwritten digit recognition solution on mobile devices using Keras. Then, we will convert this Keras model into a Core ML model and use it to build an iOS mobile application. Let's start by introducing you to Keras.
