The awards program offers unrestricted funds and AWS Promotional Credits to support research at academic institutions and non-profit organizations in areas that align with our mission to advance customer-obsessed science.
Amazon is proud to support the work of these researchers and their projects.
The ARA support has substantially helped crystallize our group's formulations and algorithms for fairness in cloud services, efficiency in online advertising, and the tradeoffs between efficiency and fairness in online services.

This project has a huge impact on the society and healthcare because it allows to provide timely and accurate diagnosis of neurological speech disorders (e.g., dystonia). The MLRA enabled us to use cutting-edge GPU capabilities to develop, train and validate our deep learning models for diagnosis of neurological speech disorders.
The generous award provide by AWS has helped us to pump-prime novel research on the interface of climate science and machine learning. It also allowed us to make significant progress in understanding the benefits of using the cloud for ML focused climate research (on clouds).
The award allowed us to scale up our experiments to learn traffic smoothing algorithms in high fidelity simulations. The RL policies learned from the work are now in the process of being transferred to actual vehicles for field operational testing on California freeways.
