Overview of this book

Deep learning is rapidly becoming the most popular topic in the mobile app industry. This book introduces trending deep learning concepts and their use cases with an industrial and application-focused approach. You will cover a range of projects covering tasks such as mobile vision, facial recognition, smart artificial intelligence assistant, augmented reality, and more. With the help of eight projects, you will learn how to integrate deep learning processes into mobile platforms, iOS, and Android. This will help you to transform deep learning features into robust mobile apps efficiently. You’ll get hands-on experience of selecting the right deep learning architectures and optimizing mobile deep learning models while following an application oriented-approach to deep learning on native mobile apps. We will later cover various pre-trained and custom-built deep learning model-based APIs such as machine learning (ML) Kit through Firebase. Further on, the book will take you through examples of creating custom deep learning models with TensorFlow Lite. Each project will demonstrate how to integrate deep learning libraries into your mobile apps, right from preparing the model through to deployment. By the end of this book, you’ll have mastered the skills to build and deploy deep learning mobile applications on both iOS and Android.

Summary

In this chapter, we examined the concept behind image processing and how we can integrate it with our Android- or iOS-based application made using Flutter to perform face detection. The chapter started with adding relevant dependencies to support the functionalities of Firebase ML Kit and the image_picker library. The required UI components with the necessary functionalities were added. The implementation mainly covered image file selection using the Flutter plugin and how images can be processed once they are selected. An example of on-device Face Detector model usage was presented, along with an in-depth discussion of the method by which the implementation was carried out.

In the next chapter, we will be discussing how you can create your own AI-powered chatbot that can double-up as a virtual assistant using the Actions on Google platform.&...
