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.

Chapter 4. TensorFlow Mobile in Android

In the previous chapter, we focused on supervised learning and unsupervised learning, and learned about the different types of learning algorithms. In this chapter, we will get introduced to TensorFlow for mobile, and go through a sample program implementation using TensorFlow for mobile. In Chapter 9Neural Networks on Mobile, we will be using it to implement a classification algorithm. But we need to understand how TensorFlow for mobile works and be able to write samples using it before we can implement machine learning algorithms with it. The objective of this chapter is to get introduced to TensorFlow, TensorFlow Lite, TensorFlow for mobile, and their ways of working, and to try hands-on examples using TensorFlow for mobile in Android.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • An introduction to TensorFlow, TensorFlow Lite, and TensorFlow for mobile
  • The components of TensorFlow for mobile
  • The architecture of a mobile machine learning application...
