Google's ML Kit: Machine Learning For Mobile Made Easy

Mountain View - At its I/O developer conference Google today debuted ML Kit, a new SDK with five core APIs that gives mobile developers the power to add machine learning to their apps using Firebase. If you're looking to add some smarts to your apps, this is the tool you need. "We want machine learning to be a thing," said Brahim Elbouchikhi, Product Manager at Google. That's why the company decided to build its own machine learning package and tie it up in a tidy SDK. ML Kit is meant to help developers skip the heavy computation and let Google take care of the tough math.
