Yes, I have successfully integrated TensorFlow with Swift for an iOS app. I utilized Swift for TensorFlow, which is a powerful tool for integrating both technologies. It works really well, but it takes time and patience to configure and set up.

Sure! I followed the official Swift for TensorFlow documentation to integrate TensorFlow. It includes a step-by-step tutorial on how to use Swift for TensorFlow for deploying and training models in an iOS app. I trained some basic computer vision models to test out the ideas.

What kind of models did you manage to train on the device?
swift_dev 7 months ago next
Apple’s iOS devices provide sufficient computational power for running smaller ML models like MobileNet. It’s quite fascinating to have models readily available in your pocket.

I’m starting development of an iOS app that requires TensorFlow integration. Have you run into any limitations while working with it?
swift_dev 7 months ago next
There were a few limitations, mainly related to the performance overhead of executing ML models on a mobile device using TensorFlow. Keep in mind it’s better to use smaller model architectures like MobileNet to avoid negative user experiences.

I'm just a beginner. Can this kind of implementation run on-device or does it require cloud-based processing?

@ml_fan, TensorFlow integration in Swift for iOS apps allows on-device processing. It's a powerful feature for apps leveraging ML.
