    SageMaker model package for classifying news text into topics

    Overview

    Open image

    This SageMaker model package provides a REST API to classify news text into four topics: World, Sports, Business, or Sci/Tech, with a confidence score.

    Use it to organize content feeds, tag articles at ingestion time, or build topic-aware recommendation and monitoring pipelines.

    The API accepts input as JSON or CSV and supports real-time endpoints and batch transform.

    Model and training data The model is a ModernBERT-base (answerdotai/ModernBERT-base) text classifier fine-tuned with PyTorch and Hugging Face Transformers on the public ag_news dataset. It runs in network isolation on SageMaker, so no data leaves your account.

    Known limitations

    • English only. Other languages are not supported.
    • The model was fine-tuned on inputs up to 512 tokens. Longer text is accepted, but accuracy is only characterized to that length; split long documents into passages before sending.
    • The label set is fixed to the four AG News topics: World, Sports, Business, and Sci/Tech. Text outside those topics is still forced into one of the four.
    • Trained on news articles; accuracy on other genres will be lower.

    Measured performance

    • Accuracy 94.4 percent, macro-F1 0.944, measured on 20,000 held-out examples from AG News. The split is seeded (70/20/10, seed 42) and was not used in training.
    • Real-time endpoint on ml.m5.large: 268 ms median per request (282 ms p95).
    • Throughput on the same instance: about 23 texts per second at a batch size of 32.

    Highlights

    • Tag incoming news as World, Sports, Business, or Sci/Tech as it hits the ingest pipe
    • A four-way news taxonomy with confidence - not a generic topic model you have to interpret
    • JSON or CSV; real-time or batch; no training job

    AI Insights

     Info

    Dimensions summary

    You pay by the hour based on the SageMaker instance you run. The five instance types (ml.m5.large, ml.m5.xlarge, ml.m5.2xlarge, ml.c5.xlarge, ml.c5.2xlarge) span general-purpose and compute-optimized families, letting you match capacity to your workload. Each instance comes in two modes: batch, for processing groups of text at once, and real-time, for live endpoint requests. This gives you 10 combinations. Pricing scales with instance size and mode, so cost tracks the hours each endpoint or batch job runs. The underlying AWS infrastructure is billed separately.

    Top-of-mind questions for buyers

    One host hour is one hour that a chosen SageMaker instance runs your model. Real-time endpoints accrue hours while the endpoint stays live and waiting for requests. Batch jobs accrue hours only while the job runs. Each running instance is metered separately, so multiple instances multiply the hours.
    A real-time endpoint accrues host hours whenever it stays deployed, even with no incoming text. To stop software charges, delete the endpoint. A batch job charges only for the hours it actively runs, then stops. Underlying AWS infrastructure is billed separately by AWS.
    Both modes meter the same instance by the hour, but the trigger differs. Real-time bills for continuous endpoint uptime, so it suits steady live traffic. Batch bills only during a processing job, so it suits scoring large groups of text on demand. You pick per instance type.

    Amazon SageMaker model

    An Amazon SageMaker model package is a pre-trained machine learning model ready to use without additional training. Use the model package to create a model on Amazon SageMaker for real-time inference or batch processing. Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed platform for building, training, and deploying machine learning models at scale.

    Deploy the model on Amazon SageMaker AI using the following options:
    Deploy the model as an API endpoint for your applications. When you send data to the endpoint, SageMaker processes it and returns results by API response. The endpoint runs continuously until you delete it. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs while the endpoint runs. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Deploy models for real-time inference  .
    Deploy the model to process batches of data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). SageMaker runs the job, processes your data, and returns results to Amazon S3. When complete, SageMaker stops the model. You're billed for software and SageMaker infrastructure costs only during the batch job. Duration depends on your model, instance type, and dataset size. AWS Marketplace models don't support Amazon SageMaker Asynchronous Inference. For more information, see Batch transform for inference with Amazon SageMaker AI  .
    Version release notes

    Important: security update. The inference container is rebuilt on Amazon Linux 2023, replacing a Debian base that carried HIGH and CRITICAL CVEs with no fixed version available upstream.

    • The model itself is unchanged. This version is exported from the same fine-tuned checkpoint as version 1.
    • Request and response formats are unchanged: JSON or CSV in, label plus confidence out.
