Advanced Environment Setup and Package Management for Building an AI-Powered Web App

In Chapters 8 through 12, we will be building a new web app together: a tool that can detect the presence of COVID-19 from an image. To do so, we will leverage a pre-trained model (we are not delving into AI and model training but just using a pre-trained convolutional neural network) and in this way, we will learn how to integrate our AI models into our web applications by building up an entire set of services around them!

In very few words, a pre-trained model is an AI model that has been trained previously by someone else in order to make predictions – for example, classifications or regressions. To train the model, a dataset of cases related to the problem ...
