When you build models with the Apache MXNet deep learning framework, you can take advantage of the expansive model zoo provided by GluonCV to quickly train state-of-the-art computer vision algorithms for image and video processing. A typical development environment for training consists of a Jupyter notebook hosted on a compute instance configured by the operating […]

This post is co-written by Femi Olumofin, an analytics architect at Infoblox. In the same way that you can conveniently recognize someone by name instead of government-issued ID or telephone number, the Domain Name System (DNS) provides a convenient means for naming and reaching internet services or resources behind IP addresses. The pervasiveness of DNS, […]

November 2022: The solution described here is not the latest best practice. The new HuggingFace Deep Learning Container (DLC) is available in Amazon SageMaker (see Use Hugging Face with Amazon SageMaker). For customer training BERT models, the recommended pattern is to use HuggingFace DLC, shown as in Finetuning Hugging Face DistilBERT with Amazon Reviews Polarity dataset. […]

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) achieve state-of-the-art results in tasks such as image classification and object detection. They are used in many diverse applications, such as in autonomous driving to detect traffic signs and objects on the street, in healthcare to more accurately classify anomalies in image-based data, and in retail for inventory management. However, CNNs […]

GPUs can significantly speed up deep learning training, and have the potential to reduce training time from weeks to just hours. However, to fully benefit from the use of GPUs, you should consider the following aspects: Optimizing code to make sure that underlying hardware is fully utilized Using the latest high performant libraries and GPU […]

FORMULA 1 (F1) turns 70 years old in 2020 and is one of the few sports that combines real-time skill with engineering and technical prowess. Technology has always played a central role in F1; where the evolution of the rules and tools is built into the DNA of F1. This keeps fans engaged and drivers […]

As a data scientist attempting to solve a problem using supervised learning, you usually need a high-quality labeled dataset before starting your model building. Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth makes dataset building for a different range of tasks, like text classification and object detection, easier and more accessible to everyone. Ground Truth also helps you build […]

September 8, 2021: Amazon Elasticsearch Service has been renamed to Amazon OpenSearch Service. See details. Sometimes it’s hard to find the right words to describe what you’re looking for. 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 […]
