As the adage goes, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Often, it’s easier to show a physical example or image than to try to describe an item with words, especially when using a search engine to find what you’re looking […]

XGBoost is a popular and efficient machine learning (ML) algorithm for regression and classification tasks on tabular datasets. It implements a technique known as gradient boosting on trees and performs remarkably well in ML competitions. Since its launch, Amazon SageMaker has supported XGBoost as a built-in managed algorithm. For more information, see Simplify machine learning […]

It’s quite common to be watching a soccer match and, when seeing a player score a goal, surmise how difficult scoring that goal was. Your opinions may be further confirmed if you’re watching the match on television and hear the broadcaster exclaim how hard it was for that shot to find the back of the […]

It’s 5 PM on a Friday. You’ve spent all afternoon coding out a complex, sophisticated feature engineering strategy. It just started working on your Amazon SageMaker Studio t3.medium notebook, and all you want to do is plug this onto a massive instance, scale it out over the rest of your dataset, and go home. You […]

Fraudulent users and malicious accounts can result in billions of dollars in lost revenue annually for businesses. Although many businesses use rule-based filters to prevent malicious activity in their systems, these filters are often brittle and may not capture the full range of malicious behavior. However, some solutions, such as graph techniques, are especially suited […]
