How to evaluate the quality of the synthetic data – measuring from the perspective of fidelity, utility, and privacy

In an increasingly data-centric world, enterprises must focus on gathering both valuable physical information and generating the information that they need but can’t easily capture. Data access, regulation, and compliance are an increasing source of friction for innovation in analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). For highly regulated sectors such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Life Sciences, […]

Augment fraud transactions using synthetic data in Amazon SageMaker

Developing and training successful machine learning (ML) fraud models requires access to large amounts of high-quality data. Sourcing this data is challenging because available datasets are sometimes not large enough or sufficiently unbiased to usefully train the ML model and may require significant cost and time. Regulation and privacy requirements further prevent data use or […]

LightOn Lyra-fr model is now available on Amazon SageMaker

We are thrilled to announce the availability of the LightOn Lyra-fr foundation model for customers using Amazon SageMaker. LightOn is a leader in building foundation models specializing in European languages. Lyra-fr is a state-of-the-art French language model that can be used to build conversational AI, copywriting tools, text classifiers, semantic search, and more. You can […]

Automatically identify languages in multi-lingual audio using Amazon Transcribe

If you operate in a country with multiple official languages or across multiple regions, your audio files can contain different languages. Participants may be speaking entirely different languages or may switch between languages. Consider a customer service call to report a problem in an area with a substantial multi-lingual population. Although the conversation could begin […]

Introducing Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler’s new embedded visualizations

Manually inspecting data quality and cleaning data is a painful and time-consuming process that can take a huge chunk of a data scientist’s time on a project. According to a 2020 survey of data scientists conducted by Anaconda, data scientists spend approximately 66% of their time on data preparation and analysis tasks, including loading (19%), cleaning (26%), […]

Damage assessment using Amazon SageMaker geospatial capabilities and custom SageMaker models

In this post, we show how to train, deploy, and predict natural disaster damage with Amazon SageMaker with geospatial capabilities. We use the new SageMaker geospatial capabilities to generate new inference data to test the model. Many government and humanitarian organizations need quick and accurate situational awareness when a disaster strikes. Knowing the severity, cause, […]

Deploy Amazon SageMaker Autopilot models to serverless inference endpoints

Amazon SageMaker Autopilot automatically builds, trains, and tunes the best machine learning (ML) models based on your data, while allowing you to maintain full control and visibility. Autopilot can also deploy trained models to real-time inference endpoints automatically. If you have workloads with spiky or unpredictable traffic patterns that can tolerate cold starts, then deploying […]
