Hands-On Artificial Intelligence for IoT - Second Edition

Overview of this book

There are many applications that use data science and analytics to gain insights from terabytes of data. These apps, however, do not address the challenge of continually discovering patterns for IoT data. In Hands-On Artificial Intelligence for IoT, we cover various aspects of artificial intelligence (AI) and its implementation to make your IoT solutions smarter. This book starts by covering the process of gathering and preprocessing IoT data gathered from distributed sources. You will learn different AI techniques such as machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and natural language processing to build smart IoT systems. You will also leverage the power of AI to handle real-time data coming from wearable devices. As you progress through the book, techniques for building models that work with different kinds of data generated and consumed by IoT devices such as time series, images, and audio will be covered. Useful case studies on four major application areas of IoT solutions are a key focal point of this book. In the concluding chapters, you will leverage the power of widely used Python libraries, TensorFlow and Keras, to build different kinds of smart AI models. By the end of this book, you will be able to build smart AI-powered IoT apps with confidence.

Apache MLlib


Apache Spark MLlib provides a powerful computational environment for ML. It provides a distributed architecture on a large-scale basis, allowing one to run ML models more quickly and efficiently. That's not all; it is open source with a growing and active community continuously working to improve and provide the latest features. It provides a scalable implementation of the popular ML algorithms. It includes algorithms for the following:

  • Classification: Logistic regression, linear support vector machine, Naive Bayes
  • Regression: Generalized linear regression
  • Collaborative filtering: Alternating least square
  • Clustering: K-means
  • Decomposition: Singular value decomposition and principal component analysis

It has proved to be faster than Hadoop MapReduce. We can write applications in Java, Scala, R, or Python. It can also be easily integrated with TensorFlow. 

Regression in MLlib

Spark MLlib has built-in methods for regression. To be able to use the built-in methods of Spark, you will have...
