Summary:

Day-1

✔AI/ML works on the principle of receiving data and learning from it over and over again gaining experience from multiple examples

✔We need cloud-based services for ML-based projects because training the AI model requires a lot of resources, providing resources for building ML-based projects locally will be very costly and will consume a lot of time, hence it is economical and time-saving to use cloud-based services for building ML projects

✔Amazon Rekognition service helps us to detect objects and identify their characteristics in an image

✔The confidence score is an accuracy measured by an ML model as to how much % it is sure about an object or its attribute to be true as it predicted

✔We can use Amazon Rekognition service through the Web UI of AWS and also through the AWS CLI and AWS SDK

✔The library of python that is used for contacting the AWS from python is boto3.

✔Amazon Polly service is use to convert text into speech and it has a much different variety of speech options.

✔Rekognition Image is an image recognition service that detects objects, scenes, and faces; extracts text; recognizes celebrities; and identifies inappropriate content in images.

Day-2

✔Amazon Lex is a service for building chatting interfaces or bot into any application using voice and text on real-time chatting and auto-response by the bot. The intent is a function an action that the user wants to perform, WHat we speak is known as utterances, Slot is like a DT it has already predefined functionalities, and the answer what they give is known as prompt

✔NLP is broadly defined as the automatic manipulation of natural language, like speech and text, by software

✔Amazon Kendra is a service (Enterprise Search Engine) where we can use a wide documentation format for analyzing selecting specific text in doc. Orr searches that specific task there we use AmazonKendra, by this we can create our own private search engine.

✔Amazon Code Guru helps a programmer to optimize review their codes

✔Codeguru-profiler-agent is the python library that needs to be installed to access the profiler of Code Guru.

✔Amazon Comprehend is the service use for retrieving information from the text. The provided text will automatically find this particular word is name, this no. is mobile no., etc.

✔Amazon Texttract is the service that extracts information from scanned docs. Useful for automating manual things.

✔Amazon translate is the service for providing a translation facility to your application.
