Beginning Artificial Intelligence with the Raspberry Pi
Gain a gentle introduction to the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) using the Raspberry Pi as the computing platform. Most of the major AI topics will be explored, including expert systems, machine learning both shallow and deep, fuzzy logic control, and more!
AI in action will be demonstrated using the Python language on the Raspberry Pi. The Prolog language will also be introduced and used to demonstrate fundamental AI concepts. In addition, the Wolfram language will be used as part of the deep machine learning demonstrations.
A series of projects will walk you through how to implement AI concepts with the Raspberry Pi. Minimal expense is needed for the projects as only a few sensors and actuators will be required. Beginners and hobbyists can jump right in to creating AI projects with the Raspberry PI using this book.
What You'll Learn Who This Book Is For
Hobbyists, makers, engineers involved in designing autonomous systems and wanting to gain an education in fundamental AI concepts, and non-technical readers who want to understand what AI is and how it might affect their lives.

This is a very useful introduction to artificial intelligence using the Raspberry Pi. It covers the basics very well and has good explanations and examples of artificial neural networks and the underlying mathematics.
For my purposes, I would have preferred less/fewer robotics examples and more AI examples. The book would benefit from discussions of or references to:
- high level APIs such as Tensorflow and Keras
- Google’s AIY Voice and Vision Kit projects for the Raspberry PI
Although the Preface to the book mentions the Wolfram language and Mathematica, I couldn’t find any discussion or examples of their use within the body of the book.
But despite these comments and suggestions, it is a very good introduction to the topic.

A book I should have written. A book I should have published.
This is a very good introduction to the basics (and the author specifies that it's just the basics) of Artificial Intelligence, specifically written to run on the Raspberry Pi, a $35 SingleBoardComputer.
For *my* personal taste, the writing was a little too dry. I always try to go for a more conversational tone in the books I produce. But that's a personal opinion -- others may find the tone just to their liking.
