Artificial Intelligence for IoT Cookbook

By: Michael Roshak

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.

Getting ready

For this recipe, you are going to need an Azure subscription and a ROOBO linear array or circular microphone. On your PC, you will also need to download and install Android Studio and Vysor for working with the ROOBO. To set up the device, take the following steps:

  1. Download and install Android Studio.
  2. Download and install Vysor.
  3. Power on the device and connect it to your computer. There are two USB connectors: one labeled power and one labeled debug. Connect the power connector to a power source and the debug USB cable to your computer:

  1. Open Vysor and select the device to view:

  1. Click on Settings:

Now that we have completed the device setup, let us generate a wake word. To generate a wake word, take the following steps:

  1. Go to https://speech.microsoft.com/ and click on Get started:

  1. Select New Project and fill out the custom speech form, and then click Create:

  1. Click on Create Model.
  2. Fill in the form with the wake word you wish to train. Then, click...
