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.

In this recipe, we have only scratched the surface of what the IoT Hub SDK is capable of doing. For example, we could even send cloud-to-device messages that allow us to queue up a set of messages for the device to digest. We could have also sent a direct message. This is like a cloud-to-device message that sends a message to a device but does not queue the message. If a device is offline, the message never gets sent. Another option would have been to upload to a blob. This allows us to upload log or binary files securely and directly to blob storage. Finally, we could have used device twins, which allow us to have a configuration file set on the device and can be queried across a fleet of devices. This would help us find out if an update did not work or a setting did not get set properly.
