Getting Started with Python for the Internet of Things

Overview of this book

This Learning Path takes you on a journey in the world of robotics and teaches you all that you can achieve with Raspberry Pi and Python. It teaches you to harness the power of Python with the Raspberry Pi 3 and the Raspberry Pi zero to build superlative automation systems that can transform your business. You will learn to create text classifiers, predict sentiment in words, and develop applications with the Tkinter library. Things will get more interesting when you build a human face detection and recognition system and a home automation system in Python, where different appliances are controlled using the Raspberry Pi. With such diverse robotics projects, you'll grasp the basics of robotics and its functions, and understand the integration of robotics with the IoT environment. By the end of this Learning Path, you will have covered everything from configuring a robotic controller, to creating a self-driven robotic vehicle using Python. • Raspberry Pi 3 Cookbook for Python Programmers - Third Edition by Tim Cox, Dr. Steven Lawrence Fernandes • Python Programming with Raspberry Pi by Sai Yamanoor, Srihari Yamanoor • Python Robotics Projects by Prof. Diwakar Vaish

Logistic regression classifier


This approach can be chosen where the output can take only two values, 0 or 1, pass/fail, win/lose, alive/dead, or healthy/sick, and so on. In cases where the dependent variable has more than two outcome categories, it may be analyzed using multinomial logistic regression.

How to do it...

  1. After installing the essential packages, let's construct some training labels:
import numpy as np
from sklearn import linear_model
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
a = np.array([[-1, -1], [-2, -1], [-3, -2], [1, 1], [2, 1], [3, 2]])
b = np.array([1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2])
  1. Initiate the classifier:
classification = linear_model.LogisticRegression(solver='liblinear', C=100)
classification.fit(a, b)
  1. Sketch datapoints and margins:
def plot_classification(classification, a , b):
  a_min, a_max = min(a[:, 0]) - 1.0, max(a[:, 0]) + 1.0
  b_min, b_max = min(a[:, 1]) - 1.0, max(a[:, 1]) + 1.0 step_size = 0.01
  a_values, b_values = np.meshgrid(np.arange(a_min, a_max, step_size), np.arange(b_min, b_max...
