Closing thoughts
This tool essentially democratizes machine learning by way of allowing anyone (who is able) to create custom models, but there is always a trade-off between simplicity and expressiveness. So, here is a short list of tools you may want to explore:
- Turi create: comes from a firm acquired by Apple in 2016; it provides tight integration with Core ML, allowing for easy deployment and custom models. It also provides a more comprehensive suite of machine learning models such as Style Transfer and segmentation. You can learn more about Turi create here: https://github.com/apple/turicreate.
- IBM Watson Services for Core ML: IBM Watson is IBM's AI platform, exposing an array of common machine learning models as a service. They have recently made available some of these services via Core ML models, allowing your application to leverage IBM Watson's services even when offline.
- ML Kit: Google announced an ML Kit in early 2018 as a platform for common machine learning tasks such as image...
