With their assistance we were able to collect thousands of annotations in a fraction of the time it would have taken using our own team.

At Tyson Foods, we are engaged in the production of food, seeking to pursue truth and integrity, and committed to creating value for our shareholders, our customers, our team members, and our communities. To deliver on this promise and provide the highest quality products to customers, we have manual inspections in place to detect product quality issues, including breading voids, burns, or deformations, and equipment inspections, such as conveyor belt leaks, to detect issues early; however, because these issues are anomalous, it's very difficult or impossible to collect images for machine learning model training. In addition, we often run into a bottleneck of labeling training data specific to our processes and environment. In some cases, labeling is very tedious and error prone, leading to poor machine learning model performance. Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth holds tremendous promise for us because it allows us to address every one of these challenges. Generating synthetic data will allow us to train highly accurate models to automate product and equipment inspection points. It can also reduce the turnaround time for labeled data, enabling us to train models faster while also improving accuracy. SageMaker Ground Truth is opening up paths to tackle use cases that were all but impossible to address with computer vision in the past due to the lack of example data.
