Amazon SageMaker provides a powerful platform for building, training, and deploying machine learning models into a production environment on AWS. By combining this powerful platform with the serverless capabilities of Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), Amazon API Gateway, and AWS Lambda, it’s possible to transform an Amazon SageMaker endpoint into a web application that accepts […]

Structured and unstructured data are being generated at an unprecedented rate, so you need the right tools to help organize, search, and understand this vast amount of information, it’s challenging to make the data useful. This is especially true for unstructured data, and it’s estimated that over 80% of the data in enterprises is unstructured. Text analytics […]

January 2021: Post updated with changes required for SageMaker SDK v2, courtesy of Eitan Sela, Senior Startup Solutions Architect Machine learning is a powerful tool that has recently enabled use cases that were never previously possible–computer vision, self-driving cars, natural language processing, and more. Machine learning is a promising technology, but it can be complex […]

Starting today, you can easily train and deploy your PyTorch deep learning models in Amazon SageMaker. This is the fourth deep learning framework that Amazon SageMaker has added support for, in addition to TensorFlow, Apache MXNet, and Chainer.  Just like with those frameworks, now you can write your PyTorch script like you normally would and […]

Factorization machines can be used for classification or regression and are much more computationally efficient on large sparse data sets than traditional algorithms like linear regression. This property is why FM are widely used for recommendation.

In the United States, with the 2018 midterm elections approaching, people are looking for more information about the voting process. This blog post explores how we can apply machine learning (ML) to better integrate science into the task of understanding the electorate. Typically for machine learning applications, clear use cases are derived from labelled data. […]

We’re the AWS Marketing Data Science team. We use advanced analytical and machine learning (ML) techniques so we can share insights into business problems across the AWS customer lifecycle, such as ML-driven scoring of sales leads, ML-based targeting segments, and econometric models for downstream impact measurement. Within Amazon, each team operates independently and owns the […]

Today we are launching the training job cloning feature on the Amazon SageMaker console, which makes it much easier for you to create training jobs based on existing ones. When you use Amazon SageMaker, it’s common to run multiple training jobs using different training sets and identical configuration. It’s also common to adjust a specific […]

Once you have trained, optimized and deployed your machine learning (ML) model, the next challenge is to host it in such a way that consumers can easily invoke and get predictions from it. Many customers have consumers who are either external or internal to their organizations and want to use the model for predictions (ML […]

December 2020: Post updated with changes required for Amazon SageMaker SDK v2 This blog post describes how to train, deploy, and retrieve predictions from a machine learning (ML) model using Amazon SageMaker and R. The model predicts abalone age as measured by the number of rings in the shell. The reticulate package will be used as an […]
