Overview of this book

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly finding practical applications across a wide variety of industry verticals, and the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of them. Developers are looking for ways to make IoT devices smarter and to make users’ lives easier. With this AI cookbook, you’ll be able to implement smart analytics using IoT data to gain insights, predict outcomes, and make informed decisions, along with covering advanced AI techniques that facilitate analytics and learning in various IoT applications. Using a recipe-based approach, the book will take you through essential processes such as data collection, data analysis, modeling, statistics and monitoring, and deployment. You’ll use real-life datasets from smart homes, industrial IoT, and smart devices to train and evaluate simple to complex models and make predictions using trained models. Later chapters will take you through the key challenges faced while implementing machine learning, deep learning, and other AI techniques, such as natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, and embedded machine learning for building smart IoT systems. In addition to this, you’ll learn how to deploy models and improve their performance with ease. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to package and deploy end-to-end AI apps and apply best practice solutions to common IoT problems.

How it works...

In this recipe, we used a Docker container from NVIDIA to bypass the many steps it requires to install NVIDIA GPU on a local computer. We used VS Code to connect to the running Docker container and we tested it to make sure the container was capable of using the GPUs. We then developed our code.

First, as always, we imported our libraries. Then we declared our variables. The first variable is the location of the training data, the split amount, the number of epochs, and the steps run. We then made a function that prints the results on screen so that we could see whether our model was improving with changes to the hyperparameters. We then imported the images from our training folder. After that, we set up our neural network. Next, we imported the ResNet 50 model. We set the model's requires_grad parameters to false so that our code would not affect the already existing model. We are using a sequential linear neural network using ReLU for our activation function with...
