Machine Learning for Android Developers with the Mobile Vision API-- Part 1 -- Face Detection

Machine learning is a very interesting field in Computer Science that has ranked really high on my to-learn list for a long while now. With so many updates from RxJava, Testing, Android N, Android Studio and other Android goodies, I haven't been able to dedicate time to learn it. I was very excited to discover that Machine Learning can now implemented by anyone in their Android Apps based on the Mobile Vision APIs from Google without needing to have prior knowledge in the field. All you need is to know is how to use APIs. There are a lot of APIs for Machine Learning on the cloud and mobile, but in this series I'm going to focus only on the Mobile Vision APIs since those are created specifically for Android developers.
