Implementing a Fritz AI Machine Learning Model in an iOS app

Articles

Fritz AI allows developers to use mobile-optimized machine learning (ML) algorithms to create custom ML models (without code) for use in their apps.

In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of creating an image labeling ML model that can identify different car logos, and then integrating the model into an iOS app.

Introducing the Fritz AI Dataset Generator for Mobile Machine Learning

Articles

Today we’re excited to introduce the Fritz AI Dataset Generator, a new component of Fritz AI Studio, designed to break down a major barrier between developers and the creation of incredible machine learning-powered mobile applications.

That barrier is data acquisition. Despite advances in neural network architectures and their optimizations for mobile deployment, there often isn’t enough available high-quality data on which to train those models.

[Hacker Noon] Building Not Hotdog with Turi Create and Core ML — in an afternoon

Articles

The Not Hotdog app from HBO’s Silicon Valley has become one of the most iconic joke apps in tech. Like most things in the show, there is grain of truth to the fictitious app that makes it actually plausible.

With Not Hotdog, HBO went a step further—they actually built the thing. If you ever need help to figure out if something is a hotdog, head over the app store.
