The last few years have seen a tremendous paradigm shift in how institutional asset managers source and integrate multiple data sources into their investment process. With frequent shifts in risk correlations, unexpected sources of volatility, and increasing competition from passive strategies, asset managers are employing a broader set of third-party data sources to gain a […]

Today we announce the general availability of Renate, an open-source Python library for automatic model retraining. The library provides continual learning algorithms able to incrementally train a neural network as more data becomes available. By open-sourcing Renate, we would like to create a venue where practitioners working on real-world machine learning systems and researchers interested […]

Deploying high-quality, trained machine learning (ML) models to perform either batch or real-time inference is a critical piece of bringing value to customers. However, the ML experimentation process can be tedious—there are a lot of approaches requiring a significant amount of time to implement. That’s why pre-trained ML models like the ones provided in the PyTorch […]

Foundation models are large deep learning models trained on a vast quantity of data at scale. They can be further fine-tuned to perform a variety of downstream tasks and form the core backbone of enabling several AI applications. The most prominent category is large-language models (LLM), including auto-regressive models such as GPT variants trained to complete […]

Today, we’re happy to announce updates to our Amazon SageMaker Experiments capability of Amazon SageMaker that lets you organize, track, compare and evaluate machine learning (ML) experiments and model versions from any integrated development environment (IDE) using the SageMaker Python SDK or boto3, including local Jupyter Notebooks. Machine learning (ML) is an iterative process. When solving […]

Proper estimation of predictive uncertainty is fundamental in applications that involve critical decisions. Uncertainty can be used to assess the reliability of model predictions, trigger human intervention, or decide whether a model can be safely deployed in the wild. We introduce Fortuna, an open-source library for uncertainty quantification. Fortuna provides calibration methods, such as conformal […]

Amazon SageMaker Training Managed Warm Pools gives you the flexibility to opt in to reuse and hold on to the underlying infrastructure for a user-defined period of time. This is done while also maintaining the benefit of passing the undifferentiated heavy lifting of managing compute instances in to Amazon SageMaker Model Training. In this post, […]

In an increasingly data-centric world, enterprises must focus on gathering both valuable physical information and generating the information that they need but can’t easily capture. Data access, regulation, and compliance are an increasing source of friction for innovation in analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). For highly regulated sectors such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Life Sciences, […]

Developing and training successful machine learning (ML) fraud models requires access to large amounts of high-quality data. Sourcing this data is challenging because available datasets are sometimes not large enough or sufficiently unbiased to usefully train the ML model and may require significant cost and time. Regulation and privacy requirements further prevent data use or […]

We are thrilled to announce the availability of the LightOn Lyra-fr foundation model for customers using Amazon SageMaker. LightOn is a leader in building foundation models specializing in European languages. Lyra-fr is a state-of-the-art French language model that can be used to build conversational AI, copywriting tools, text classifiers, semantic search, and more. You can […]
