In this post, we explore each component in detail, along with the technical implementation of the two core modules: course outline generation and course content generation.

In this post, we show how you can build an automated, serverless solution to transform webinar recordings into comprehensive handouts using Amazon Bedrock Data Automation for video analysis. We walk you through the implementation of Amazon Bedrock Data Automation to transcribe and detect slide changes, as well as the use of Amazon Bedrock foundation models (FMs) for transcription refinement, combined with custom AWS Lambda functions orchestrated by AWS Step Functions.

The Institute of Science Tokyo has successfully trained Llama 3.3 Swallow, a 70-billion-parameter large language model (LLM) with enhanced Japanese capabilities, using Amazon SageMaker HyperPod. The model demonstrates superior performance in Japanese language tasks, outperforming GPT-4o-mini and other leading models. This technical report details the training infrastructure, optimizations, and best practices developed during the project.

In this post, we present an Amazon Bedrock powered virtual assistant that can transcribe presentation audio and examine it for language use, grammatical errors, filler words, and repetition of words and sentences to provide recommendations as well as suggest a curated version of the speech to elevate the presentation.

Organizations across media and entertainment, advertising, social media, education, and other sectors require efficient solutions to extract information from videos and apply flexible evaluations based on their policies. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has unlocked fresh opportunities for these use cases. In this post, we introduce the Media Analysis and Policy Evaluation solution, which uses AWS […]

Crafting new questions for exams and quizzes can be tedious and time-consuming for educators. The time required varies based on factors like subject matter, question types, experience level, and class level. Multiple-choice questions require substantial time to generate quality distractors and ensure a single unambiguous answer, and composing effective true-false questions demands careful effort to […]

In this post, we show you how to create a MAP connector to AWS HealthImaging, which is reusable in applications built with the MONAI Deploy App SDK, to integrate with and accelerate image data retrieval from a cloud-native DICOM store to medical imaging AI workloads. The MONAI Deploy SDK can be used to support hospital operations. We also demonstrate two hosting options to deploy MAP AI applications on SageMaker at scale.

Recently, teachers and institutions have looked for different ways to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) into their curriculums, whether it be teaching about machine learning (ML) or incorporating it into creating lesson plans, grading, or other educational applications. Generative AI models, in particular large language models (LLMs), have dramatically sped up AI’s impact on education. Generative […]

There has been a paradigm change in the mindshare of education customers who are now willing to explore new technologies and analytics. Universities and other higher learning institutions have collected massive amounts of data over the years, and now they are exploring options to use that data for deeper insights and better educational outcomes. You […]

This post is co-written with Stephen Aylward, Matt McCormick, Brianna Major from Kitware and Justin Kirby from the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR). Amazon SageMaker Studio Lab provides no-cost access to a machine learning (ML) development environment to everyone with an email address. Like the fully featured Amazon SageMaker Studio, Studio Lab allows […]
