ARM’s Zach Shelby introduced the use of microcontrollers for machine learning and artificial intelligence at the ECF19 event in Helsinki on last Friday. The talk showed that that artificial intelligence and machine learning can be applied to small embedded devices in addition to the cloud-based model. In particular, artificial intelligence is well suited to the devices of the Internet of Things. The use of machine learning in IoT is also sensible from an energy efficiency point of view if unnecessary power-consuming communication can be avoided (for example local keyword detection before sending voice data to cloud more more detailed analysis).
According to Shelby , we are now moving to a third wave of IoT that comes with comprehensive equipment security and voice control. In this model, machine learning techniques are one new application that can be added to previous work done on IoT.
In order to successfully use machine learning in small embedded devices, the problem to be solved is that it has reasonably little incoming information and a very limited number of possible outcomes. ARM Cortex M4 processor equipped with a DSP unit is powerful enough for simple hand writing decoding or detecting few spoken words with machine learning model. In examples the used machine learning models needed less than 100 kilobytes of memory.

“As an example, the Bonsai algorithm developed by Microsoft can be as small as 2 KB but can have even better performance than a typical 40 MB kNN algorithm, or a 4 MB neural network. This result may not sound important, but the same accuracy on a model 1/10,000th of the size is quite impressive. A model this small can be run on an Arduino Uno, which has 2 KB RAM available.”

AttendNets is a highly compact, low-precision deep neural network architecture designed for visual perception in tinyML applications.
It’s Close Enough
https://www.hackster.io/news/it-s-close-enough-d58cff097354
Visual attention condensers bring deep learning visual perception models to TinyML applications.
Sometimes close is good enough. That is the idea behind AttendNets, a highly compact, low-precision deep neural network architecture designed for visual perception in TinyML applications.
Deep learning has provided a seemingly endless stream of breakthroughs in computer vision in recent years. Generally, accuracy is valued more highly in deep learning applications than is optimizing the model for minimal complexity. Accordingly, the complexities of these models makes deploying them on low-power, highly resource-constrained devices a major challenge.
AttendNets adapts deep learning models to resource-constrained devices by introducing the concept of visual attention condensers and by tailoring models specifically to the type of hardware that they will run on. Building upon the attention condenser, which is a self-attention mechanism that provides condensed embeddings, the team added optimizations for working with images. The resulting visual attention condensers reduce model complexity through better handling of the high channel dimensionality of image data. An iterative generative synthesis approach is taken to generate the final architectural design of the network. This yields an optimal balance between image recognition accuracy and performance on a constrained edge device.
Tomi Engdahl says:
“Suddenly the same exact ML application code runs 15 times faster on our Nano BLE Sense board. Thanks to Arm’s dramatic optimizations, users of Arduino TensorFlow library were able to benefit from these gains immediately — making even cooler machine learning applications possible.”

Speech Recognition using Arduino
http://mag.breadboard.pk/speech-recognition-using-arduino/
Speech recognition technology is very useful in automation which not only gives you hands free control over devices but also adds security to the system. Apart from making voice controlled gadgets, speech recognition also provides significant help to people suffering from various disabilities.
Now in this project, we are going to use machine learning to train a speech recognition model using Edge Impulse Studio with three commands i.e. ‘LIGHT ON’, ‘LIGHT OFF’, and ‘NOISE’. Edge Impulse is an online machine learning platform that enables developers to create the next generation of intelligent device solutions with embedded Machine Learning. We used Edge impulse studio previously to differentiate cough and noise sounds.
Creating the Dataset for Arduino Speech Recognition
Here Edge Impulse Studio is used to train our Speech Recognition model. Training a model on Edge Impulse Studio is similar to training machine learning models on other machine learning frameworks. For training, a machine learning model’s first step is to collect a dataset that has the samples of data that we would like to be able to recognize.
We will create a dataset with three classes “LED ON”, “LED OFF” and “noise”. To create a dataset, create an Edge Impulse account, verify your account and then start a new project. You can load the samples by using your mobile, your Arduino board or you can import a dataset into your edge impulse account. The easiest way to load the samples into your account is by using your mobile phone. For that connect the mobile with Edge Impulse.
After uploading the samples for the first class now set the change the label and collect the samples for ‘light off’ and ‘noise’ class.
Test data should be at least 30% of training data, so collect the 4 samples of ‘noise’ and 4 to 5 samples for ‘light on’ and ‘light off’.
Training the Model
As our dataset is ready, now we can create an impulse for the data. For that go to ‘Create impulse’ page. Change the default settings of a 1000 ms Window size to 1200ms and 500 ms Window increase to 50ms. This means our data will be processed 1.2 s at a time, starting each 58ms.
Now on ‘Create impulse’ page click on ‘Add a processing block’. In the next window select the Audio (MFCC) block. After that click on ‘Add a learning block’ and select the Neural Network (Keras) block. Then click on ‘Save Impulse’.
In the next step go to the MFCC page and then click on ‘Generate Features’. It will generate MFCC blocks for all of our windows of audio.
After that go to the ‘NN Classifier’ page and click on the three dots on the upper right corner of the ‘Neural Network settings’ and select ‘Switch to Keras (expert) mode’.
Replace the original with the following code and change the ‘Minimum confidence rating’ to ‘0.70’. Then click on the ‘Start training’ button. It will start training your model.
After training the model it will show the training performance. For me, the accuracy was 81.1% and loss was 0.45 that is not ideal performance but we can proceed with it. You can increase your model’s performance by creating a vast dataset.
Now as our Speech Recognition model is ready, we will deploy this model as Arduino library. Before downloading the model as a library you can test the performance by going to the ‘Live Classification’ page. The Live classification feature allows you to test the model both with the existing testing data that came with the dataset or by streaming audio data from your mobile phone.
Now to download the model as Arduino Library, go to the ‘Deployment’ page and select ‘Arduino Library’. Now scroll down and click on ‘Build’ to start the process. This will build an Arduino library for your project.
Now add the library in your Arduino IDE. For that open the Arduino IDE and then click on Sketch > Include Library > Add.ZIP library
Then, load an example by going to File > Examples > Your project name – Edge Impulse > nano_ble33_sense_microphone
To control the LED we have to save all the command probabilities in three different variables so that we can put conditional statements on them. So according to the new code if the probability of ‘light on’ command is more than 0.50 then it will turn on the LED and if the probability of ‘light off’ command is more than 0.50 than it will turn off the LED.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/janakirammsv/2020/11/03/how-tinyml-makes-artificial-intelligence-ubiquitous/?sh=566b73757622
The rise of TinyML marks a significant shift in how end-users consume AI. Vendors from the hardware and software industries are collaborating to bring AI models to the microcontrollers.
The ability to run sophisticated deep learning models embedded within an electronic device opens up many avenues. TinyML doesn’t need an edge, cloud, or Internet connectivity. It runs locally on the same microcontroller, which has the logic to manage the connected sensors and actuators.
Phase 1 – AI in the Cloud
Phase 2 – AI at the Edge
Phase 3 – AI in the Microcontroller
Though TinyML is in its infancy, there is a vibrant ecosystem in the making. Electronic chip and IoT kit makers such as Adafruit, Mediatek, Arduino and STM are supporting TinyML in their devices. Microsoft’s Azure Sphere, the secure microcontroller, can also run TinyML models. TensorFlow Lite, a variation of the popular open source deep learning framework, can be ported to supported devices. Another open source machine learning compiler and runtime, Apache TVM, can also be used to convert models into TinyML.
