With the use of cloud computing, big data and machine learning (ML) tools like Amazon Athena or Amazon SageMaker have become available and useable by anyone without much effort in creation and maintenance. Industrial companies increasingly look at data analytics and data-driven decision-making to increase resource efficiency across their entire portfolio, from operations to performing […]

Effective self-service options are becoming increasingly critical for contact centers, but implementing them well presents unique challenges. Amazon Lex provides your Amazon Connect contact center with chatbot functionalities such as automatic speech recognition (ASR) and natural language understanding (NLU) capabilities through voice and text channels. The bot takes natural language speech or text input, recognizes […]

Pose estimation is a computer vision technique that detects a set of points on objects (such as people or vehicles) within images or videos. Pose estimation has real-world applications in sports, robotics, security, augmented reality, media and entertainment, medical applications, and more. Pose estimation models are trained on images or videos that are annotated with […]

With the advent of generative AI solutions, organizations are finding different ways to apply these technologies to gain edge over their competitors. Intelligent applications, powered by advanced foundation models (FMs) trained on huge datasets, can now understand natural language, interpret meaning and intent, and generate contextually relevant and human-like responses. This is fueling innovation across […]

This post is co-written with Santosh Waddi and Nanda Kishore Thatikonda from BigBasket. BigBasket is India’s largest online food and grocery store. They operate in multiple ecommerce channels such as quick commerce, slotted delivery, and daily subscriptions. You can also buy from their physical stores and vending machines. They offer a large assortment of over […]

In this post, we show you how to build an internal SaaS layer to access foundation models with Amazon Bedrock in a multi-tenant (team) architecture. We specifically focus on usage and cost tracking per tenant and also controls such as usage throttling per tenant. We describe how the solution and Amazon Bedrock consumption plans map to the general SaaS journey framework. The code for the solution and an AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) template is available in the GitHub repository.

Generative AI agents are a versatile and powerful tool for large enterprises. They can enhance operational efficiency, customer service, and decision-making while reducing costs and enabling innovation. These agents excel at automating a wide range of routine and repetitive tasks, such as data entry, customer support inquiries, and content generation. Moreover, they can orchestrate complex, […]

In the first post of this three-part series, we presented a solution that demonstrates how you can automate detecting document tampering and fraud at scale using AWS AI and machine learning (ML) services for a mortgage underwriting use case. In the second post, we discussed an approach to develop a deep learning-based computer vision model […]

Do your employees wait for hours on the telephone to open an IT ticket? Do they wait for an agent to triage an issue, which sometimes only requires restarting the computer? Providing excellent IT support is crucial for any organization, but legacy systems have relied heavily on human agents being available to intake reports and […]

In this post, we show how to develop an ML-driven solution using Amazon SageMaker for detecting adverse events using the publicly available Adverse Drug Reaction Dataset on Hugging Face. In this solution, we fine-tune a variety of models on Hugging Face that were pre-trained on medical data and use the BioBERT model, which was pre-trained on the Pubmed dataset and performs the best out of those tried.
