Classifier Model Predicting

In the previous section, we have trained a classifier model. In this section, we will use this model to classify objects.

Install an SD Card

The trained model will be stored on an SD card, without an SD card we won’t be able to save this model.

Running a Model

Loading Extensions

Search "KOI" in the search bar.

Or copy and paste the following link to the search bar.

Blocks for machine learning:

Sample Program:

The model can be saved in a .bin or .json file.
e.g. aaa.json or aaa.bin

Program Flow

1: Download the program to the Micro:bit.

2: Press button A to load the classifier model.

3: Put the object in front of the camera. Press button B to run the classifier.

4: The tag of the object will be displayed on the Micro:bit.

FAQ

1: There is no reaction after pressing the buttons on the Micro:bit.

· A: This is because KOI has a longer boot time than Micro:bit. When the power is turned on, Micro:bit has already ran the code for KOI initialization before KOI is ready.

· Solution: Reset your Micro:bit after KOI has been turned on. (The trick is to let KOI power on completely before initialization.)

2: Does KOI work with 3V input?

· A: No, KOI only works with 5V.

3: KOI gives a warning message when I try to train a classifier.

· A: The classifier hasn’t been reset.

· Solution: Run the block for classifier reset, KOI will display a success message.
