TensorFlow Lite on Android Studio

You can download and build TensorFlow Lite directly from Android Studio by following these steps:

  1. Download and install the latest version of Android Studio.
  2. In your studio settings, make sure that the NDK version is greater than 14 and the SDK version is greater than 26. We are using 27 in this book and on further applications. We will look in detail at how to configure this in further projects. 
  3. You can download the application from the link in the following information box.
  4. As Android Studio instructs, you need to install all the Gradle dependencies.

We need a model in order to use it in the application. We can either use an existing model or train our own model. Let's use an existing model in this application. 

You can download models at the link given next, in the information box. You can also download the zipped model file from the link given:

  • You can download an Inception-v3 floating point model or the latest MobileNet model. Copy the appropriate .tflite to the Android app's assets directory. You can then change the classifier in the Camera2BasicFragment.java file, tensorflow/contrib/lite/java/demo/app/src/main/assets/.

Now, you can build and run the demo app.
