Amazon SageMaker notebook instances provide a scalable cloud based development environment to do data science and machine learning. This blog post will show common workflows to make you more productive and effective. The techniques in this blog post will give you tools to treat your notebook instances in a more cloud native way, remembering that […]

Amazon SageMaker and the AWS Deep Learning AMIs (DLAMI) now provide an easy way to evaluate the PyTorch 1.0 preview release. PyTorch 1.0 adds seamless research-to-production capabilities, while retaining the ease-of-use that has enabled PyTorch to rapidly gain popularity. The AWS Deep Learning AMI comes pre-built with PyTorch 1.0, Anaconda, and Python packages, with CUDA and […]

Annotation and segmentation of medical images is a laborious endeavor that can be automated in part via deep learning (DL) techniques. These approaches have achieved state-of-the-art results in generic segmentation tasks, the goal of which is to classify images at the pixel level. In Part 1 of this blog post, we demonstrate how to train […]

Amazon SageMaker recently released a feature that allows you to automatically tune the hyperparameter values of your machine learning model to produce more accurate predictions. Hyperparameters are user-defined settings that dictate how an algorithm should behave during training. Examples include how large a decision tree should be grown, the number of clusters desired from a […]

Many companies are turning to machine learning (ML) to improve customer and business outcomes. They use the power of ML models built over “big data” to identify patterns and find correlations. Then they can identify appropriate approaches or predict likely outcomes based on data about new instances. However, as ML models are approximations of the […]

For increased security, Amazon SageMaker customers can now limit access to a notebook instance to a range of IP addresses. IP address filtering helps when you need to allow only a subset of traffic to access your notebook instances. You might want to limit notebook access in the following ways: To comply with security and compliance requirements […]

Medical image processing is one of the key areas where deep learning is applied to great effect. Typical processing involves classification, detection, and segmentation using various medical image modalities. In this blog post, we outline a method to use the HIPAA Eligible service Amazon SageMaker to train a deep learning model for chest x-ray image […]

The volume, velocity and variety of data has been ever increasing since the advent of the internet. The problem many enterprises face is managing this “big data” and trying to make sense out of it to yield the most desirable outcome. Siloes in enterprises, continuous ingestion of data in numerous formats, and the ever-changing technology […]

April 2023 Update: Starting January 31, 2024, you will no longer be able to access AWS DeepLens through the AWS management console, manage DeepLens devices, or access any projects you have created. To learn more, refer to these frequently asked questions about AWS DeepLens end of life. In Part 1 of this blog post series, we […]

Amazon SageMaker now supports a new HTTP header for the InvokeEndpoint API action called CustomAttributes which can be used to provide additional information about an inference request or response. Amazon SageMaker strips all POST headers except those supported by the InvokeEndpoint API action and you can use the CustomAttributes header to pass custom information such […]
