1.2 Host Machine Information

A host machine, i.e.,a laptop or desktop computer, is necessary to handle dataset preparation, neural network training, and neural network compilation. In the making of this application, the host machine was a 64-bit x86 CPU running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The machine includes a 512 GB SSD, 16 GB of RAM, and NVIDIA A2000 GPU for training.

Python 3.6 is the dominant programming environment on the host. For guidance on how to setup a Python3 virtual environment with the necessary dependencies, see edgeai-modelmaker.
