How Yara is using MLOps features of Amazon SageMaker to scale energy optimization across their ammonia plants

Learn how Yara is using Amazon SageMaker features, including the model registry, Amazon SageMaker Model Monitor, and Amazon SageMaker Pipelines to streamline the machine learning (ML) lifecycle by automating and standardizing MLOps practices. We provide an overview of the setup, showcasing the process of building, training, deploying, and monitoring ML models for plants around the globe.

Build high performing image classification models using Amazon SageMaker JumpStart

Image classification is a computer vision-based machine learning (ML) technique that allows you to classify images. Some well-known examples of image classification include classifying handwritten digits, medical image classification, and facial recognition. Image classification is a useful technique with several business applications, but building a good image classification model isn’t trivial. Several considerations can play […]

Large-scale feature engineering with sensitive data protection using AWS Glue interactive sessions and Amazon SageMaker Studio

Organizations are using machine learning (ML) and AI services to enhance customer experience, reduce operational cost, and unlock new possibilities to improve business outcomes. Data underpins ML and AI use cases and is a strategic asset to an organization. As data is growing at an exponential rate, organizations are looking to set up an integrated, […]

Build a cross-account MLOps workflow using the Amazon SageMaker model registry

A well-designed CI/CD pipeline is essential to scale any software development workflow effectively. When designing production CI/CD pipelines, AWS recommends leveraging multiple accounts to isolate resources, contain security threats and simplify billing-and data science pipelines are no different. At AWS, we’re continuing to innovate to simplify the MLOps workflow. In this post, we discuss some […]

Enabling hybrid ML workflows on Amazon EKS and Amazon SageMaker with one-click Kubeflow on AWS deployment

Today, many AWS customers are building enterprise-ready machine learning (ML) platforms on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) using Kubeflow on AWS (an AWS-specific distribution of Kubeflow) across many use cases, including computer vision, natural language understanding, speech translation, and financial modeling. With the latest release of open-source Kubeflow v1.6.1, the Kubeflow community continues to […]

Malware detection and classification with Amazon Rekognition

According to an article by Cybersecurity Ventures, the damage caused by Ransomware (a type of malware that can block users from accessing their data unless they pay a ransom) increased by 57 times in 2021 as compared to 2015. Furthermore, it’s predicted to cost its victims $265 billion (USD) annually by 2031. At the time […]

How to schedule jobs and parameterize your datasets in Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler

Data is transforming every field and every business. However, with data growing faster than most companies can keep track of, collecting data and getting value out of that data is a challenging thing to do. A modern data strategy can help you create better business outcomes with data. AWS provides the most complete set of […]

Detect multicollinearity, target leakage, and feature correlation with Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler

In machine learning (ML), data quality has direct impact on model quality. This is why data scientists and data engineers spend significant amount of time perfecting training datasets. Nevertheless, no dataset is perfect—there are trade-offs to the preprocessing techniques such as oversampling, normalization, and imputation. Also, mistakes and errors could creep in at various stages […]
