Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth: Build High-Quality and Accurate ML Training Da...Amazon Web Services
Successful machine learning models are built on high-quality training datasets. Labeling raw data to get accurate training datasets involves a lot of time and effort because sophisticated models can require thousands of labeled examples to learn from, before they can produce good results. Typically, the task of labeling is distributed across a large number of humans, adding significant overhead and cost. Join us as we introduce Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth, a new service that provides an effective solution to reduce this cost and complexity using a machine learning technique called active learning. Active learning reduces the time and manual effort required to do data labeling, by continuously training machine learning algorithms based on labels from humans. By iterating through ambiguous data points, Ground Truth improves the ability to automatically label data resulting in high-quality training datasets.

Amazon provides cloud computing services like S3 and EC2 that allow businesses to pay for only the computing resources they use. This provides advantages to both Amazon and subscribers. Amazon can generate more revenue by offering excess capacity, while subscribers avoid maintaining their own IT infrastructure and only pay for what they consume. However, some concerns for businesses include security, control over their data, and potential service disruptions from outages. Microsoft and other large companies also offer cloud services targeted at different business sizes.

Machine Learning
Use Cases
How today’s businesses are using
machine learning to achieve fast,
efficient, measurable results
2. Machine learning has moved beyond the hype to
become a meaningful driver of value for many
organizations. Over half of businesses that have
deployed machine learning-powered artificial
intelligence (AI) initiatives say the technology has
increased productivity.1
While it’s clear that machine learning is an
essential part of business transformation, many
organizations struggle to understand where to
apply machine learning for the most impact.
Selecting the right machine learning use case
requires you to consider a number of factors.
First, you need to find a balance between
optimal business value and speed. A proof of
concept built by a siloed data scientist is not
likely to generate much enthusiasm for machine
learning in an organization. What is more apt to
attract the needed commitment and funding is
showing how machine learning can address the
practical issues your organization currently faces.
Furthermore, you’ll want to find something that
can be accomplished in 6–10 months so that you
don’t lose momentum. This is especially true if
this is your first foray into machine learning.
Solve your most common business challenges
with machine learning
Second, you’ll want to find a use case that is rich
in data that you already have. A good business
use case with no data leads to frustrated
data scientists.
Lastly, you’ll want to evaluate whether your
business problem actually requires machine
learning for success and whether machine
learning will result in better outcomes than your
traditional approach. These outcomes might be
realized as cost reduction, increased employee
productivity, or improved experiences for your
end customers.
The best way to satisfy all of these criteria is to
ensure that technical experts and domain experts
are working hand in hand on your machine
learning project. Technical experts can conduct
feasibility assessments, and domain experts will
ensure the solution is solving a real business
problem and will have a real impact.

5. Make faster decisions by
automatically extracting and
analyzing data from documents
The millions of documents created by your organization contain a
treasure trove of insights waiting to be leveraged. Unfortunately,
manually processing the ever-growing volumes of information to make
them easy to access and search is a cumbersome, costly task. Using
machine learning, your organization can gain timely access to the
information contained in your documents, leading to new insights that
inform your business decisions.
For organizations looking to easily activate intelligent document
processing today, AWS offers three services that can be deployed
individually or in any combination. Amazon Textract automatically
extracts handwriting, printed text, and data from scanned documents.
Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service
that uses machine learning to find insights and relationships in text. And
Amazon Augmented AI (Amazon A2I) provides built-in human review
workflows to ensure accuracy of the data.
You can also quickly and efficiently develop your own machine learning
models for text extraction and analysis with Amazon SageMaker, a fully
managed service that helps data scientists and developers build, train,
and deploy machine learning models. This service provides several
built-in machine learning algorithms—such as BlazingText and Linear
Learner—that are optimized for text classification, NLP, and optical
character recognition (OCR).

Add intelligence to your contact center
to improve service and reduce cost
Improving the customer service experience is one of the best ways to
differentiate your brand—and to demonstrate the value of machine
learning. Successful organizations treat their customer contact center
as an asset that is crucial to success rather than viewing it solely as a
cost center.
Machine learning can help to transform a contact center into a profit
center by reducing call wait times, improving agent productivity
and satisfaction, lowering costs, and helping to identify business
improvement opportunities.
AWS offers several flexible options to easily add intelligence to your
contact center. Amazon Connect is an easy-to-use omnichannel cloud
contact center that helps companies provide superior customer service
at a lower cost. Contact Lens for Amazon Connect is a set of machine
learning capabilities integrated into Amazon Connect that allows contact
center supervisors to better understand the sentiment, trends, and
compliance risks of customer conversations to effectively train agents,
replicate successful interactions, and identify crucial company and
product feedback.
If your organization already has a contact center solution in place,
AWS Contact Center Intelligence (CCI) solutions offer a variety of
ways to quickly and cost-effectively add AI to your contact center.
These solutions, available through participating AWS Partner Network
(APN) partners, allow customers to benefit from AWS machine
learning-powered solutions to enhance self-service, analyze calls in real
time to assist agents, and learn from all contact center interactions with
post-call analytics.

8. Analyze media assets to increase
value and create new insights
Media assets, such as audio and video, are invaluable in offering an
enhanced customer experience across entertainment, professional sports,
education, and other industries. The value of these assets can be greatly
increased through targeting, personalization, and improved monetization.
Unfortunately, many companies struggle to optimize their media to fully take
advantage of this content.
Applying machine learning to this problem can provide benefits across
four key areas—easily enable better content search and discovery,
increase accessibility through captioning and localization, improve content
monetization, and improve media compliance and moderation. AWS offers
several machine learning solutions that can help you intelligently manage
your media assets.
AWS Media Insights Engine leverages Amazon Rekognition, Amazon
Transcribe, and Amazon Translate to dramatically accelerate your ability
to index rich content—so you can quickly make it available for content
searches, ad optimization, subtitling and localization, content moderation,
compliance adherence, and highlight generation. Amazon Rekognition
enables faster, easier image and video analysis with custom labeling to further
enhance content indexing and retrieval. Amazon Transcribe enables efficient
conversion of audio speech into text to create rich metadata indexes for
search and discovery. Combining Amazon Transcribe with Amazon Translate
provides content publishers a workstream to easily caption and translate
videos to remove barriers and increase reach and accessibility. Media2Cloud
helps you set up a serverless, end-to-end content ingest and analysis
workflow, streamlining the process of moving media assets to the cloud. It
uses machine learning to extract and analyze the metadata needed to build
the viewing experiences your customers want.

Forecast key demand metrics
faster and more accurately to meet
customer demand and reduce waste
Forecasting what customers want, how much of it they want, and when
they will want it is vital to any organization’s success. Supply chain, sales,
finance, and other business units are dependent upon accurate demand
metrics to satisfy customers, better manage inventory, and optimize
cash flow. You can use machine learning to discover how time-series
data and other variables like product features and location affect each
other to generate forecasts such as product demand and resource
needs performance.
In the past, machine learning-powered forecasting tools have been too
expensive and complex for many businesses to adopt in a meaningful
way. Amazon Forecast changes the equation, making it easy to
generate fast and accurate forecasts by combining time-series data with
additional variables that are relevant to each customer’s unique needs.
Automated processes help you create a custom machine learning model
in hours—with no machine learning experience required.
Organizations that want to develop their own machine learning models
for forecasting can use Amazon SageMaker, a fully managed service
that helps data scientists and developers build, train, and deploy
machine learning models quickly. The service includes several built-in
machine learning algorithms, such as DeepAR, that are optimized for

Make it easy to identify potential
fraudulent online activities
Around the globe, billions of dollars are lost each year to online fraud.3
Many applications that are designed to protect against potential
online fraud rely on business rules that are not keeping pace with the
ever-changing tactics of bad actors.
Fraud detection is a good application for machine learning for three
primary reasons. First, it addresses a problem that’s rich in data and
can benefit from pattern identification within datasets. Second, it can
achieve results that are nearly impossible to accomplish through human
input alone. Finally, these results are easily quantifiable in financial
terms, which can help foster executive buy-in for machine learning
across the organization.
Amazon Fraud Detector leverages machine learning and more than
20 years of fraud detection expertise from Amazon to catch more
potential online fraud faster and easier. It puts your data at the
center of your solution and makes it simpler to identify and prevent
fraud—with no prior machine learning experience necessary.
For fraud detection, Amazon SageMaker offers built-in algorithms, such
as Random Cut Forest and XGBoost, and hundreds of algorithms and
pre-trained models available through the AWS Marketplace, allowing
you to develop fraud detection solutions in days.
