Accelerate data preparation for ML in Amazon SageMaker Canvas

Data preparation is a crucial step in any machine learning (ML) workflow, yet it often involves tedious and time-consuming tasks. Amazon SageMaker Canvas now supports comprehensive data preparation capabilities powered by Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler. With this integration, SageMaker Canvas provides customers with an end-to-end no-code workspace to prepare data, build and use ML and …

How do you make a robot smarter? Program it to know what it doesn’t know

Engineers have come up with a new way to teach robots to know when they don’t know. The technique involves quantifying the fuzziness of human language and using that measurement to tell robots when to ask for further directions. Telling a robot to pick up a bowl from a table with only one bowl is …

Support Vector Machines for Image Classification and Detection Using OpenCV

In a previous tutorial, we have explored the use of the Support Vector Machine algorithm as one of the most popular supervised machine learning techniques that comes implemented in the OpenCV library. So far, we have seen how to apply Support Vector Machines to a custom dataset that we have generated, consisting of two-dimensional points …

Best practices for augmenting human intelligence with AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) should be designed to include and balance human oversight, agency, and accountability over decisions across the AI lifecycle. IBM’s first Principle for Trust and Transparency states that the purpose of AI is to augment human intelligence. Augmented human intelligence means that the use of AI enhances human intelligence, rather than operating independently …
