Machine learning (ML) methods for the field of computational chemistry are growing at an accelerated rate. Easy access to open-source solvers (such as TensorFlow and Apache MXNet), toolkits (such as RDKit cheminformatics software), and open-scientific initiatives (such as DeepChem) makes it easy to use these frameworks in daily research. In the field of chemical informatics, many […]

Deep learning has revolutionized how we process and handle real-world data. There are many types of deep learning applications, including applications to organize a user’s photo archive, make book recommendations, detect fraudulent behavior, and perceive the world around an autonomous vehicle. In this post, we’ll show you step-by-step how to use your own custom-trained models […]

Millions of customers shop in brick and mortar stores every day. Currently, most of these retailers have no efficient way to identify these shoppers and understand their purchasing behavior. They rely on third-party market research firms to provide customer demographic and purchase preference information.

This blog post walks you how you can use AWS services to identify purchasing behavior of your customers. We show you:

How retailers can use captured images in real time.
How Amazon Rekognition can be used to retrieve face attributes like age range, emotions, gender, etc.
How you can use Amazon Athena and Amazon QuickSight to analyze the face attributes.
How you can create unique insights and learn about customer emotions and demographics.
How to implement serverless architecture using AWS managed services.
