Create custom images for geospatial analysis with Amazon SageMaker Distribution in Amazon SageMaker Studio | Amazon Web Services

Amazon SageMaker Studio provides a comprehensive suite of fully managed integrated development environments (IDEs) for machine learning (ML), including JupyterLab, Code Editor (based on Code-OSS), and RStudio. It supports all stages of ML development—from data preparation to deployment, and allows you to launch a preconfigured JupyterLab IDE for efficient coding within seconds. Additionally, its flexible interface and artificial intelligence (AI) powered coding assistant simplifies and enhances the ML workflow configuration, debugging, and code testing. Geospatial data such as satellite images, coordinate traces, or aerial maps that are enriched with characteristics or attributes of other business and environmental datasets is becoming…

Out-of-distribution generalisation in spoken language understanding

Out-of-distribution generalisation in spoken language understanding

[Submitted on 10 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled Out-of-distribution generalisation in spoken language understanding, by Dejan Porjazovski and 2 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Test data is said to be out-of-distribution (OOD) when it unexpectedly differs from the training data, a common challenge in real-world use cases of machine learning. Although OOD generalisation has gained interest in recent years, few works have focused on OOD generalisation in spoken language understanding (SLU) tasks. To facilitate research on this topic, we introduce a modified version of the popular SLU dataset SLURP, featuring data splits for testing OOD…

How risk-averse are humans when interacting with robots?

How risk-averse are humans when interacting with robots?

How do people like to interact with robots when navigating a crowded environment? And what algorithms should roboticists use to program robots to interact with humans? These are the questions that a team of mechanical engineers and computer scientists at the University of California San Diego sought to answer in a study presented recently at the ICRA 2024 conference in Japan. "To our knowledge, this is the first study investigating robots that infer human perception of risk for intelligent decision-making in everyday settings," said Aamodh Suresh, first author of the study, who earned his Ph.D. in the research group of…

Amazon Expands Guardrails Feature for Bedrock

(Michael Vi/Shutterstock) Amazon is among several tech companies that implemented the recommendations by the White House to set guardrails for the responsible use of GenAI. This was part of an industry-wide initiative to promote safe and ethical AI development and deployment.  In April 2024, Amazon unveiled Guardrails for Amazon Bedrock, the company’s enterprise platform for building and scaling generative AI applications. The feature allows users to block harmful content and evaluate model safety and accuracy based on application requirements and responsible AI policies.  The Guardrails for Amazon Bedrock offers customizable safeguards on top of the native protection. Amazon claims that…

How the IoT World Can Tap Into the True Power of the SIM Card

How the IoT World Can Tap Into the True Power of the SIM Card

The ubiquity of the Internet of Things (IoT) is now undeniable. 39.6 billion connected devices are expected to be in use globally by 2033, according to Statista. This staggering explosion of interconnected devices across industries, from manufacturing to smart cities and more, drives a strong demand for a new era of SIM cards. Traditional SIM cards, designed for voice and data plans on mobile phones, are no longer sufficient for the unique needs of IoT devices. These devices often require lower power consumption, smaller form factors, as well as more secure and flexible connectivity solutions. Since IoT devices require fast data…

These new WhatsApp TV ads tell you a lot about the company’s growth plans

These new WhatsApp TV ads tell you a lot about the company’s growth plans

That's a reasonable question, but if you go looking for answers in Meta's financials, you won't find many: The company blends WhatsApp's metrics with those from Instagram and Facebook, so there's very little specific data available. A few years ago, it announced that WhatsApp had 2 billion users around the world, and that's about it. On the other hand! You can learn quite a bit about WhatsApp simply by watching TV. That's where Meta has started running ads promoting the messaging platform, using the cast of "Modern Family," the long-running sitcom.This isn't the first time Meta has advertised WhatsApp on…
