Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth Plus is a managed data labeling service that makes it easy to label data for machine learning (ML) applications. One common use case is semantic segmentation, which is a computer vision ML technique that involves assigning class labels to individual pixels in an image. For example, in video frames captured by … Read more

Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler reduces the time it takes to aggregate and prepare data for machine learning (ML) from weeks to minutes in Amazon SageMaker Studio. Data Wrangler enables you to access data from a wide variety of popular sources (Amazon S3, Amazon Athena, Amazon Redshift, Amazon EMR and Snowflake) and over 40 other third-party sources. … Read more

In this two-part series, we demonstrate how to label and train models for 3D object detection tasks. In part 1, we discuss the dataset we’re using, as well as any preprocessing steps, to understand and label data. In part 2, we walk through how to train a model on your dataset and deploy it to … Read more

Online fraud has a widespread impact on businesses and requires an effective end-to-end strategy to detect and prevent new account fraud and account takeovers, and stop suspicious payment transactions. Detecting fraud closer to the time of fraud occurrence is key to the success of a fraud detection and prevention system. The system should be able … Read more

The AI landscape is being reshaped by the rise of generative models capable of synthesizing high-quality data, such as text, images, music, and videos. The course toward democratization of AI helped to further popularize generative AI following the open-source releases for such foundation model families as BERT, T5, GPT, CLIP and, most recently, Stable Diffusion. … Read more

As machine learning (ML) models have improved, data scientists, ML engineers and researchers have shifted more of their attention to defining and bettering data quality. This has led to the emergence of a data-centric approach to ML and various techniques to improve model performance by focusing on data requirements. Applying these techniques allows ML practitioners … Read more
