In recent years, we have been observing the rapid growth and adoption of IoT-based systems, enhancing multiple areas of our lives. Concurrently, the utilization of machine learning techniques has surged, often for similar use cases as those seen in IoT systems. In this survey, we aim to focus on the combination of machine learning and the edge computing paradigm. The presented research commences with the topic of edge computing, its benefits, such as reduced data transmission, improved scalability, and reduced latency, as well as the challenges associated with this computing paradigm, like energy consumption, constrained devices, security, and device fleet management. It then presents the motivations behind the combination of machine learning and edge computing, such as the availability of more powerful edge devices, improving data privacy, reducing latency, or lowering reliance on centralized services. Then, it describes several edge computing platforms, with a focus on their capability to enable edge intelligence workflows. It also reviews the currently available edge intelligence frameworks and libraries, such as TensorFlow Lite or PyTorch Mobile. Afterward, the paper focuses on the existing use cases for edge intelligence in areas like industrial applications, healthcare applications, smart cities, environmental monitoring, or autonomous vehicles.
