Cover Story: Low-power embedded devices and modern machine learning (ML) algorithms have established a new Internet of Things (IoT) era where lightweight ML frameworks such as TinyML have offered a new potential for ML algorithms operating in edge devices. TinyML seeks to minimize latency, bandwidth, and overall node costs in the cloud. The ability to allow IoT devices to run without constant cloud access while offering accurate ML models provides a cost-effective option for IoT applications as TinyML aims to integrate on-premises analytics to IoT services. This article defines TinyML, describes its features and usage, and gives relevant background information. Additionally, TensorFlow Lite is presented along with ML model development. Lastly, TinyML is integrated with network technologies such as 5G and LPWAN. View this paper
