The rapid growth of billions of IoT connected devices encourages to train the machine for delivering desired output parameters. The relationship between internet of things, machine learning and artificial intelligence is demonstrated through many research and development of products and services. Dataset collected from IoT devices are now available for analysis and predicting future trends. One of the embodiments is to forecast weather based on the previous data collected. This talk will discuss and demonstrate the convergence of IoT connected devices such as temperature, humidity and connect to the machine learning model to predict readings for subsequent week/days. Practical application of python enabled ML linear regression implementations will be shown. Mathematical modeling and analyzing data using matplotlib and various python library function such as NumPy and Pandas will be exhibited exercising Jupyter notebooks and open source hardware (Raspberry Pi).
