💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with backend.ai-accelerator-furiosa 
Create a small machine learning inference application that leverages the power of Furiosa NPUs through the 'backend.ai-accelerator-furiosa' package. This application will serve as a proof-of-concept for deploying and utilizing neural processing units (NPUs) in real-world scenarios, focusing on image classification tasks. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the steps and features to include:

1. **Setup Environment**: Begin by setting up your Python environment with all necessary packages including 'backend.ai-accelerator-furiosa', TensorFlow or PyTorch, and any other dependencies required for handling images.
2. **Model Selection**: Choose a pre-trained model suitable for image classification, such as ResNet or MobileNet from TensorFlow/Keras or torchvision in PyTorch. Ensure the model is optimized for use with Furiosa NPUs.
3. **Integration with Furiosa NPUs**: Utilize the 'backend.ai-accelerator-furiosa' package to integrate your selected model with Furiosa NPUs. This involves loading the model onto the NPU and configuring it for optimal performance.
4. **Image Preprocessing**: Implement functionality to preprocess input images before feeding them into the model. This includes resizing, normalization, and any other transformations necessary for the model's input requirements.
5. **Inference Execution**: Write code to execute inference on the model using the Furiosa NPUs. Capture and display the top predictions for each input image, showcasing the model's ability to classify different types of images.
6. **Performance Metrics**: Include mechanisms to measure and report the performance of the model when running on Furiosa NPUs, such as inference time per image and accuracy metrics.
7. **User Interface**: Develop a simple user interface where users can upload images for classification. Display the results alongside the original image and provide options to view detailed performance statistics.
8. **Documentation**: Provide comprehensive documentation explaining how to set up and run the application, as well as detailing the integration process with Furiosa NPUs.

This project aims to demonstrate the ease of integrating Furiosa NPUs into existing machine learning workflows and highlight the benefits of using specialized hardware for inference tasks.
