A family of four foundation models designed to meet diverse enterprise needs across reasoning, multimodal processing, and real-time conversational AI.
How agentic systems work under the hood — and how AWS’s new AgentCore framework implements their essential components.
Reasoning models can generate seven to 10 times as many tokens as necessary on simple tasks, creating unsustainable costs at scale. Amazon's vision for metacognitive AI could fundamentally shift how models allocate computational resources.
Amazon's competitive-agent architecture creates a continuous improvement cycle that develops security protections at machine speed, reducing what typically takes weeks down to hours.
A new approach to reducing carbon emissions reveals previously hidden emission “hotspots” within value chains, helping organizations make more detailed and dynamic decisions about their future carbon footprints.

DCASE 20212021We introduce several novel knowledge distillation techniques for training a single shallow model of three recurrent layers for acoustic event detection (AED). These techniques allow us to train a generic shallow student model without many convolutional layers, ensembling, or custom modules. Gradual incorporation of pseudo-labeled data, using strong and weak pseudo-labels to train our student model, event

Recsys 2021 Workshop on Context-Aware Recommender Systems2021Online video services acquire new content on a daily basis to increase engagement, and improve the user experience. Traditional recommender systems solely rely on watch history, delaying the recommendation of newly added titles to the right customer. However, one can use the metadata information of a cold-start title to bootstrap the personalization. In this work, we propose to adopt a two-tower model,

EMNLP 2021 Workshop on NLP for Conversational AI2021Intelligent personal assistants (IPAs) such as Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Siri extend their built-in capabilities by supporting voice apps developed by third-party developers. Sometimes the smart assistant is not able to successfully respond to user voice commands (aka utterances). There are many reasons including automatic speech recognition (ASR) error, natural language understanding (NLU

EMNLP 20212021With counterfactual bandit learning, models can be trained based on positive and negative feedback received for historical predictions, with no labeled data needed. Such feedback is often available in real-world dialog systems, however, the modularized architecture commonly used in large-scale systems prevents the direct application of such algorithms. In this paper, we study the feedback attribution problem

EMNLP 20212021Transformers-based pretrained language models achieve outstanding results in many well-known NLU benchmarks. However, while pretraining methods are very convenient, they are expensive in terms of time and resources. This calls for a study of the impact of pretraining data size on the knowledge of the models. We explore this impact on the syntactic capabilities of RoBERTa, using models trained on incremental
