Hosting YOLOv8 PyTorch models on Amazon SageMaker Endpoints

Deploying models at scale can be a cumbersome task for many data scientists and machine learning engineers. However, Amazon SageMaker endpoints provide a simple solution for deploying and scaling your machine learning (ML) model inferences. Our last blog post and GitHub repo on hosting a YOLOv5 TensorFlowModel on Amazon SageMaker Endpoints sparked a lot of interest …

AI Before You Buy: Israeli Startup Renders 3D Product Models for Top Retailers

Preparing a retailer’s online catalog once required expensive physical photoshoots to capture products from every angle. A Tel Aviv startup is saving brands time and money by transforming these camera clicks into mouse clicks. Hexa uses GPU-accelerated computing to help companies turn their online inventory into 3D renders that shoppers can view in 360 degrees, …

Improvements to Embedding-Matching Acoustic-to-Word ASR Using Multiple-Hypothesis Pronunciation-Based Embeddings

In embedding-matching acoustic-to-word (A2W) ASR, every word in the vocabulary is represented by a fixed-dimension embedding vector that can be added or removed independently of the rest of the system. The approach is potentially an elegant solution for the dynamic out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words problem, where speaker- and context-dependent named entities like contact names must be …

Universal Speech Model (USM): State-of-the-art speech AI for 100+ languages

Posted by Yu Zhang, Research Scientist, and James Qin, Software Engineer, Google Research Last November, we announced the 1,000 Languages Initiative, an ambitious commitment to build a machine learning (ML) model that would support the world’s one thousand most-spoken languages, bringing greater inclusion to billions of people around the globe. However, some of these languages …

Training large language models on Amazon SageMaker: Best practices

Language models are statistical methods predicting the succession of tokens in sequences, using natural text. Large language models (LLMs) are neural network-based language models with hundreds of millions (BERT) to over a trillion parameters (MiCS), and whose size makes single-GPU training impractical. LLMs’ generative abilities make them popular for text synthesis, summarization, machine translation, and …
