Improving stability and flexibility of ML pipelines at Amazon Packaging Innovation with Amazon SageMaker Pipelines
To delight customers and minimize packaging waste, Amazon must select the optimal packaging type for billions of packages shipped every year. If too little protection is used for a fragile item such as a coffee mug, the item will arrive damaged and Amazon risks their customer’s trust. Using too much protection will result in increased […]
Automated exploratory data analysis and model operationalization framework with a human in the loop
Identifying, collecting, and transforming data is the foundation for machine learning (ML). According to a Forbes survey, there is widespread consensus among ML practitioners that data preparation accounts for approximately 80% of the time spent in developing a viable ML model. In addition, many of our customers face several challenges during the model operationalization phase […]
Move Amazon SageMaker Autopilot ML models from experimentation to production using Amazon SageMaker Pipelines
Amazon SageMaker Autopilot automatically builds, trains, and tunes the best custom machine learning (ML) models based on your data. It’s an automated machine learning (AutoML) solution that eliminates the heavy lifting of handwritten ML models that requires ML expertise. Data scientists need to only provide a tabular dataset and select the target column to predict, […]
Model hosting patterns in Amazon SageMaker, Part 5: Cost efficient ML inference with multi-framework models on Amazon SageMaker
Machine learning (ML) has proven to be one of the most successful and widespread applications of technology, affecting a wide range of industries and impacting billions of users every day. With this rapid adoption of ML into every industry, companies are facing challenges in supporting low-latency predictions and with high availability while maximizing resource utilization […]
Train gigantic models with near-linear scaling using sharded data parallelism on Amazon SageMaker
In the pursuit of superior accuracy, deep learning models in areas such as natural language processing and computer vision have significantly grown in size in the past few years, frequently counted in tens to hundreds of billions of parameters. Training these gigantic models is challenging and requires complex distribution strategies. Data scientists and machine learning […]
Improve price performance of your model training using Amazon SageMaker heterogeneous clusters
This post is co-written with Chaim Rand from Mobileye. Certain machine learning (ML) workloads, such as training computer vision models or reinforcement learning, often involve combining the GPU- or accelerator-intensive task of neural network model training with the CPU-intensive task of data preprocessing, like image augmentation. When both types of tasks run on the same […]
Amazon SageMaker Automatic Model Tuning now supports grid search
Today Amazon SageMaker announced the support of Grid search for automatic model tuning, providing users with an additional strategy to find the best hyperparameter configuration for your model. Amazon SageMaker automatic model tuning finds the best version of a model by running many training jobs on your dataset using a range of hyperparameters that you […]
Introducing the Amazon SageMaker Serverless Inference Benchmarking Toolkit
Amazon SageMaker Serverless Inference is a purpose-built inference option that makes it easy for you to deploy and scale machine learning (ML) models. It provides a pay-per-use model, which is ideal for services where endpoint invocations are infrequent and unpredictable. Unlike a real-time hosting endpoint, which is backed by a long-running instance, compute resources for […]
