Registering the Edge device node with an initial ML model
In this exercise, to register the Edge device node, we will be using the User Input file in addition to the Node policy file. Before registering the Edge node, let’s look into the content of the User Input file that provides important variables to set up the application.
User Input
As noted before, the User Input file provides the necessary values for the several environment variables needed to set up the initial conditions for the application. The application developer specifies the variable names, their data primitive types, and their values in the service definition file of the services when they are published.
ML model location
In this example application, we have chosen a TensorFlow Lite model as the inferencing model for object classification, which is already trained with the COCO
dataset (https://cocodataset.org/) and can classify 80 different objects.
The following variables defined in the infer...
