They’re handling millions of inferences each day and driving better business outcomes for your company. They’re performing exactly as well as the day they were launched. Er, wait. Are they? Maybe. Maybe […]

Data scientists often work towards understanding the effects of various data preprocessing and feature engineering strategies in combination with different model architectures and hyperparameters. Doing so requires you to cover large parameter spaces iteratively, and it can be overwhelming to keep track of previously run configurations and results while keeping experiments reproducible. This post walks […]

Organizations are increasingly building and using machine learning (ML)-powered solutions for a variety of use cases and problems, including predictive maintenance of machine parts, product recommendations based on customer preferences, credit profiling, content moderation, fraud detection, and more. In many of these scenarios, the effectiveness and benefits derived from these ML-powered solutions can be further […]

LiDAR is a key enabling technology in growing autonomous markets, such as robotics, industrial, infrastructure, and automotive. LiDAR delivers precise 3D data about its environment in real time to provide “vision” for autonomous solutions. For autonomous vehicles (AVs), nearly every carmaker uses LiDAR to augment camera and radar systems for a comprehensive perception stack capable […]

Optical character recognition (OCR) is the task of converting printed or handwritten text into machine-encoded text. OCR has been widely used in various scenarios, such as document electronization and identity authentication. Because OCR can greatly reduce the manual effort to register key information and serve as an entry step for understanding large volumes of documents, […]

Let’s say you have identified a use case in your organization that you would like to handle via a chatbot. You familiarized yourself with Amazon Lex, built a prototype, and did a few trial interactions with the bot. You liked the overall experience and now want to deploy the bot in your production environment, but […]
