TensorFlow is a tool to implement machine learning developed by Google, and was open sourced in 2015. It is a product that can be installed on desktops and can be used to create machine learning models. Once the model has been built and trained on the desktop, the developer can transfer these models to mobile devices and start using them to predict results in mobile applications by integrating them into iOS and Android mobile applications. There are currently two flavors of TensorFlow available for implementing machine learning solutions on mobile and embedded devices:
- Mobile devices: TensorFlow for Mobile
- Mobile and Embedded devices: TensorFlow Lite
The following table will help you to understand the key differences between TensorFlow for mobile and TensorFlow Lite:
