In this blog post, we discuss how geoscientists can use shallow RNN-based algorithms with MATLAB to automatically recognize distinct geologic features in seismic images. We discuss the workflow for developing the AI models using MATLAB for seismic interpretation.  In a second post will introduce the various compute resources leveraged from AWS and NVIDIA for developing the models.

Since launch, EFA has seen continuous improvements in performance. In this post, we talk about our 2nd generation of EFA, which takes another step in improving Machine Learning and High Performance Computing in the Cloud.

In this post we describe the process to launch large, self-supervised training jobs using AWS ParallelCluster and Facebook’s Vision Self-Supervised Learning (VISSL) library.

Today we announced the AWS Impact Computing Project at the Harvard Data Science Initiative (HDSI) to identify potential solutions that can improve the lives of humans, other species, and natural ecosystems. Deb Goldfarb describes its goals and our joint vision.

AWS ParallelCluster 3.3.0 now lets you define a list of Amazon EC2 instance types for resourcing a compute queue. This gives you more flexibility to optimize the cost and total time to solution of your HPC jobs, especially when capacity is limited or you’re using Spot Instances.

Today we are excited to announce that all 9000+ applications provided by the BioContainers community are available within ECR Public Gallery! You don’t need an AWS account to access these images, but having one allows many more pulls to the internet, and unmetered usage within AWS. If you perform any sort of bioinformatics analysis on AWS, you should check it out!

In this post, we will provide an overview of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) workloads, and the AWS HPC-optimized services for it. We’ll test three popular NWP codes: WRF, MPAS, and FV3GFS.

This post will help you understand the tools available to ease the stress of migrating your cluster (and your users) from SGE to Slurm, which is necessary since the HPC community is no longer supporting SGE’s open-source codebase.

Understanding deal and portfolio risk and capital requirements is a computationally expensive process that requires the execution of multiple financial forecasting models every day and in often in real time. This post describes how it works at RenaissanceRe, one of the world’s leading reinsurance companies.

In this blog post, we discuss the AWS solution that Amazon’s construction division used to conduct large-scale CFD fire simulations as part of their Fire Strategy solutions to demonstrate safety and fire mitigation strategies. We outline the five key steps taken that resulted in simulation times that were 15-20x faster than previous on-premises architectures, reducing the time to complete from up to twenty-one days to less than one day.
