    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  .

    Inputs

    Summary

    Model input summary

    This model accepts audio data via SageMaker bidirectional streaming using JSON events over HTTP/2.

    Input Event Types:

    1. transcription_session.update - Configure the session before sending audio

      • input_audio_format: Audio encoding format ("pcm16", "float32", "mulaw", or "opus")
      • input_audio_sample_rate: Sample rate in Hz (default: 24000)
      • input_audio_number_of_channels: Must be 1 (mono)
      • input_audio_transcription.language: Source language (ISO-639-1: "ja" or "en")
      • input_audio_transcription.target_language: Output language (ISO-639-1: "ja" or "en")
      • input_audio_transcription.kana: Transcribe person's name in Kata-kana (default: false)
      • input_audio_transcription.keywords: keyword list (default: null)
      • turn_detection: false (default) or a server VAD config object ({"type": "server_vad", "silence_duration_ms": 400}) to enable automatic turn detection
      • turn_detection.silence_duration_ms: Trailing silence (ms) that ends a turn (default: 400; tune per application/pipeline)
    2. input_audio_buffer.append - Send audio chunks

      • audio: Base64-encoded audio bytes
      • event_id: Optional correlation ID for tracking (max 36 characters)
    3. input_audio_buffer.commit - Signal end of audio stream

    Supported Audio Formats:

    • pcm16: 16-bit signed integer PCM, little-endian, mono
    • float32: 32-bit floating point, little-endian, mono, range [-1.0, 1.0]
    • mulaw: G.711 μ-law
    • opus: Self-contained Ogg/Opus blob per append event

    Recommended Settings:

    • Sample rate: 24000 Hz
    • Chunk duration: 80ms per event
    Limitations for input type
    - Maximum audio per event: 8 seconds (~1MB base64 encoded) - Supported language: ja
    Input MIME type
    application/json
