Today, we’re going to be building a RESTFUL API that takes in an image and make predictions using a TensorFlow MobileNet pre-trained model.
TensorFlow.js has many pre-trained models that can be used in projects out of the box. This saves developers the task of training a model from scratch. Here we’re going to explore the MobileNet pre-trained architecture
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a subset of Evolutionary Algorithms, which use mechanisms inspired by nature such as mutation, evolution, reproduction, etc. In spite of using advanced math, these algorithms work on principles which are derived from nature. Growth of an organism in its environment and its interaction with other beings in that environment can be modeled with simple mathematical expressions.

Machine learning tech is being integrated into mobile applications more and more today. Its integration helps optimize overall performance and can add significant functionality to an app’s experience. And over time, ML models can learn and improve from user interactions, making these experiences super intuitive and intelligent.
Here, we’re going to continue working with this technology in the Flutter ecosystem. Check out my previous post on ML in Flutter for more:

Camera effects have become a very normal part of daily social media or really any camera experience on the internet nowadays. With the whole pandemic situation, video calls have become way more popular, and to add a bit of artistic fun to the plain camera outputs, a lot of apps have integrated AR filters that overlay the face or change your background to hide that messy room.

Some things never change and a loading screen is one of them. If you own a smartphone, there is a chance you might come across 100s of them in a single day of usage. In fact, you may have seen one just before opening this story.

What is a behavior script? While initially this term looks complicated, it’s actually a surprisingly simple Lens Studio feature that allows you to turn your static projects into dynamic, interactive experiences.
You can find them in pretty much any Lens; from the most complex 3D experience, to a simple blush face paint Lens; Behavior scripts serve many functions and cover a wide range of commands in Lens Studio.

For some Lens Creators, a monumental step is making the jump from a familiar workflow to a brand new one.
While finding your strong suits and your art style is important, it is equally as important to be a flexible and well-rounded creator.

Google’s on-device ML Kit recently introduced another API for barcode scanning. It can read and scan almost a dozen different types of barcodes including Codabar, Code 39, Code 93, EAN-8, EAN-13, QR code, PDF417, and more.
The barcode scanning API also tells you the scanned format and it will automatically detect the formats. The other main feature of this API is that you can use it in your application without a network connection and it will support the different orientation.

Augmented Reality (AR) is a digital virtual interface that overlaps created images on top of the real world, generally through a phone. AR necessitates the use of an app to provide the consumer with a superior experience. But people can be adamant about not installing another app. But there’s a solution to reaching your audience without asking them to download — using their already existing apps.

In photograph and video editing, color grading is an important step in the process to enrich the content and make it look more appealing. This is done by adjusting the image/video in specific ways to create a stylistic effect, giving the content a cinematic look. One common way of achieving this consistently across various editing software is by using a LUT (Look Up Table).
