Collecting and annotating image data is one of the most resource-intensive tasks on any computer vision project. It can take months at a time to fully collect, analyze, and experiment with image streams at the level you need in order to compete in the current marketplace. Even after you’ve successfully collected data, you still have […]

Amazon SageMaker and SageMaker inference endpoints provide a capability of training and deploying your AI and machine learning (ML) workloads. With inference endpoints, you can deploy your models for real-time or batch inference. The endpoints support various types of ML models hosted using AWS Deep Learning Containers or your own containers with custom AI/ML algorithms. […]

Businesses can lose billions of dollars each year due to malicious users and fraudulent transactions. As more and more business operations move online, fraud and abuses in online systems are also on the rise. To combat online fraud, many businesses have been using rule-based fraud detection systems. However, traditional fraud detection systems rely on a […]

Exploratory data analysis (EDA) is a common task performed by business analysts to discover patterns, understand relationships, validate assumptions, and identify anomalies in their data. In machine learning (ML), it’s important to first understand the data and its relationships before getting into model building. Traditional ML development cycles can sometimes take months and require advanced […]

Model deployment in machine learning (ML) is becoming increasingly complex. You want to deploy not just one ML model but large groups of ML models represented as ensemble workflows. These workflows are comprised of multiple ML models. Productionizing these ML models is challenging because you need to adhere to various performance and latency requirements. Amazon […]

A massive amount of business documents are processed daily across industries. Many of these documents are paper-based, scanned into your system as images, or in an unstructured format like PDF. Each company may apply unique rules associated with its business background while processing these documents. How to extract information accurately and process them flexibly is […]

Enterprises often deal with large volumes of IT service requests. Traditionally, the burden is put on the requester to choose the correct category for every issue. A manual error or misclassification of a ticket usually means a delay in resolving the IT service request. This can result in reduced productivity, a decrease in customer satisfaction, […]

Creating robust and reusable machine learning (ML) pipelines can be a complex and time-consuming process. Developers usually test their processing and training scripts locally, but the pipelines themselves are typically tested in the cloud. Creating and running a full pipeline during experimentation adds unwanted overhead and cost to the development lifecycle. In this post, we […]

This post is a joint collaboration with Andries Engelbrecht and James Sun of Snowflake, Inc. The cloud computing revolution has enabled businesses to capture and retain corporate and organizational data without capacity planning or data retention constraints. Now, with diverse and vast reserves of longitudinal data, companies are increasingly able to find novel and impactful […]
