Android Handwriting digit prediction app using Machine Learning Model in Kotlin
In this blog, we are going to see how to create a handwriting digit prediction app using a machine learning model in kotlin.
Technology used:
- Kotlin
- Machine Learning
- Tensorflow
Dataset
The MNIST dataset is used to create the TFLite model.
Python code link: CLICK HERE to open the code in the Google Colab.
First, create the TFLite model then upload it in the assets folder of the Android Studio.
