The last few years have seen the rise of transformer deep learning architectures to build natural language processing (NLP) model families. The adaptations of the transformer architecture in models such as BERT, RoBERTa, T5, GPT-2, and DistilBERT outperform previous NLP models on a wide range of tasks, such as text classification, question answering, summarization, and […]

NOTE: Amazon SageMaker Studio and Amazon SageMaker Studio Classic are two of the machine learning environments that you can use to interact with SageMaker. If your domain was created after November 30, 2023, Studio is your default experience. If your domain was created before November 30, 2023, Amazon SageMaker Studio Classic is your default experience.

We are excited to announce Aria, Amazon Polly’s first New Zealand English Neural text-to-speech (NTTS) voice. Similar to other Amazon Polly voices, Aria is developed as a voice that sounds bright, natural, and upbeat. This new voice for Aotearoa (New Zealand in Māori) is uniquely Kiwi. It includes a number of common te reo Māori […]

With the number of cameras and sensors deployed growing exponentially, companies across industries are consuming more video than ever before. Additionally, advancements in analytics have expanded potential use cases, and these devices are now used to improve business operations and intelligence. In turn, the ability to effectively process video at these rapidly expanding volumes is […]

The celebrity recognition feature in Amazon Rekognition automatically recognizes tens of thousands of well-known personalities in images and videos using machine learning (ML). Celebrity recognition significantly reduces the repetitive manual effort required to tag produced media content and make it readily searchable. Starting today, we’re updating our models to provide higher accuracy (lower false detections […]

With Amazon SageMaker Pipelines, you can create, automate, and manage end-to-end machine learning (ML) workflows at scale. SageMaker Projects build on SageMaker Pipelines by providing several MLOps templates that automate model building and deployment pipelines using continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). To help you get started, SageMaker Pipelines provides many predefined step types, such […]

Amazon SageMaker Studio is the first fully integrated development environment (IDE) for machine learning. It provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all ML development steps required to build, train, and deploy models. You can quickly upload data, create new notebooks, train and tune models, move back and forth between steps to […]

Multiple pieces of information are often required to complete a task or to process a query. For example, when talking to an insurance agent, a caller might ask, “Can you provide me quotes for home, auto, and boat?” The agent recognizes this as a list of policy types before continuing with the conversation. Automation of […]

Amazon SageMaker notebook instances now support Amazon Linux 2, so you can now create a new Amazon SageMaker notebook instance to start developing your machine learning (ML) models with the latest updates. An obvious question is: what do I need to do to migrate my work from an existing notebook instance that runs on Amazon […]

February 8th, 2022: Updated with AWS CloudFormation support to create an Amazon Linux 2 based SageMaker notebook instance. Today, we’re excited to announce that Amazon SageMaker notebook instances support Amazon Linux 2. You can now choose Amazon Linux 2 for your new SageMaker notebook instance to take advantage of the latest update and support provided […]
