As global food demand continues to rise and myriad threats of climate change intensify, creating more sustainable agricultural practices has become increasingly essential. This is especially true in remote areas of the world, where advanced agricultural expertise is scarce and smallholder farmers with limited resources (both financial and material) cultivate an estimated 80% of farmland.

As a mobile developer looking to integrate computer vision-based machine learning in your app(s), adding camera functionality is one of the most crucial aspects of the entire process.
You not only need the library to be stable and lightweight, but that library should also support the vast array of Android devices out there, most of which have slightly different camera implementations.

When building and optimizing machine learning models for iOS deployment, there are a number of unique factors to consider. From resource constraints and optimizing inference speed, to model conversion and accessing advanced functionality, there can be quite a bit of legwork to get an ML model working effectively inside an iOS app.

In recent years, neural networks and deep learning have sparked tremendous progress in the field of natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision.
While many of the face, object, landmark, logo, and text recognition and detection technologies are provided for Internet-connected devices, we believe that the ever-increasing computational power of mobile devices can enable the delivery of these technologies into the hands of users anytime, anywhere, regardless of Internet connection.
This post is a part of a series about feature engineering techniques for machine learning with Python.
Hey again! In this post, we’re going to explore feature scaling transformations for feature engineering.
Let’s start with feature magnitude. Frequently, our dataset contains features that highly vary in scales, and that’s a problem for some algorithms that rely on distance.

In the previous article of this series on developing Flutter applications with TensorFlow Lite, we looked at how we can develop digit recognizer with Flutter and TensorFlow Lite and image classification with Flutter and TensorFlow Lite.
In the third article of this series, we’ll keep working with TensorFlow Lite, this time focusing on implementing object detection. The application we are going to build will be able to recognize objects presented in an image.
