Launch an AI Hotdog Detector as a Serverless Python App
Learn how to launch an AI-powered hotdog detector as a serverless Python application. Explore how to use machine learning models for image classification and deploy them in a serverless environment, allowing for scalable and cost-effective predictions.
At a Glance
Have you ever wondered if a picture has a hotdog in it or not? Well, no longer do you have to wonder—you can now prove it! With this fun project, you’ll learn how to create and launch a web app in Python that tells you just that: whether or not a picture has a hotdog in it. Let’s settle the great debate once and for all, learning skills that can help you land your next big job or pursue your million dollar idea while you’re at it!
A Look At the Project Ahead
Once you have completed, this project, you’ll be able to:
- Clone a GitHub repository through the command line, otherwise known as Terminal
- Create and launch a web app with Flask, a micro-framework for Python
- Describe the necessary frontend files that help in launching the app, such as the HTML, CSS and Javascript files
What You’ll Need
Before starting this project, it’ll be helpful to have the following:
- Basic Python knowledge
- IBM Cloud account
- Basic HTML, CSS and Javascript (optional)
- GitHub account (optional)
