swift – How you can implement a CoreML mannequin into an iOS app correctly?


I’m engaged on a lung most cancers scanning app for iOS with a CoreML mannequin and after I take a look at my app on a bodily gadget, the mannequin ends in the identical prediction 100% of the time. I even modified the names round and nonetheless resulted in the identical case. I’ve listed my labels in instances and when its simply caught on the identical case (case 1)

My code is under:

import SwiftUI
import UIKit
import CoreML
import FirebaseAuth
import Firebase
import FirebaseFirestore
import Basis

let firestoreManager = AppDelegate()
struct ConditionsListView: View {
    let circumstances: [String]
    @Binding var showConditions: Bool
    
    var physique: some View {
          NavigationView {
              VStack {
                  Textual content("App is 99% correct in diagnosing these circumstances. This isn't a complete record of all abnormalities.n")
                      .font(.subheadline)
                      .foregroundColor(.black)
                      .padding(.horizontal, 15)
                      .padding(.backside, 3)
                  Checklist(circumstances, id: .self) { situation in
