AWS Glue is a serverless data integration service that can catalogue, clean, enrich, and move data between various data stores. Amazon Athena is an interactive query service that can run SQL queries on data stored in Amazon S3. By using AWS Glue to catalogue the data and Amazon Athena to run queries, the Machine Learning Specialist can leverage the existing data in Amazon S3 without any additional data transformation or loading. This solution requires the least effort compared to the other options, which involve more complex and costly data processing and storage services. References: AWS Glue, Amazon Athena

The best storage option for the trucking company is to use an Amazon S3-backed data lake to store the raw images, and set up the permissions using bucket policies. A data lake is a centralized repository that allows you to store all your structured and unstructured data at any scale. Amazon S3 is the ideal choice for building a data lake because it offers high durability, scalability, availability, and security. You can store any type of data in Amazon S3, such as images, videos, audio, text, etc. You can also use AWS services such as Amazon Rekognition, Amazon SageMaker, and Amazon EMR to analyze and process the data in the data lake. To ensure the data is only accessible to specific IAM users, you can use bucket policies to grant or deny access to the S3 buckets based on the IAM user’s identity or role. Bucket policies are JSON documents that specify the permissions for the bucket and the objects in it. You can use conditions to restrict access based on various factors, such as IP address, time, source, etc. By using bucket policies, you can control who can access the data in the data lake and what actions they can perform on it.

The solution that will meet the requirements with the least amount of effort is to use a semantic segmentation algorithm to identify a visitor’s hair in video frames, and pass the identified hair to an ResNet-50 algorithm to determine hair style and hair color. This solution can leverage the existing Amazon SageMaker algorithms and frameworks to perform the tasks of hair segmentation and classification.

Semantic segmentation is a computer vision technique that assigns a class label to every pixel in an image, such that pixels with the same label share certain characteristics. Semantic segmentation can be used to identify and isolate different objects or regions in an image, such as a visitor’s hair in a video frame. Amazon SageMaker provides a built-in semantic segmentation algorithm that can train and deploy models for semantic segmentation tasks. The algorithm supports three state-of-the-art network architectures: Fully Convolutional Network (FCN), Pyramid Scene Parsing Network (PSP), and DeepLab v3. The algorithm can also use pre-trained or randomly initialized ResNet-50 or ResNet-101 as the backbone network. The algorithm can be trained using P2/P3 type Amazon EC2 instances in single machine configurations1.

ResNet-50 is a convolutional neural network that is 50 layers deep and can classify images into 1000 object categories. ResNet-50 is trained on more than a million images from the ImageNet database and can achieve high accuracy on various image recognition tasks. ResNet-50 can be used to determine hair style and hair color from the segmented hair regions in the video frames. Amazon SageMaker provides a built-in image classification algorithm that can use ResNet-50 as the network architecture. The algorithm can also perform transfer learning by fine-tuning the pre-trained ResNet-50 model with new data. The algorithm can be trained using P2/P3 type Amazon EC2 instances in single or multiple machine configurations2.

The other options are either less effective or more complex to implement. Using an object detection algorithm to identify a visitor’s hair in video frames would not segment the hair at the pixel level, but only draw bounding boxes around the hair regions. This could result in inaccurate or incomplete hair segmentation, especially if the hair is occluded or has irregular shapes. Using an XGBoost algorithm to determine hair style and hair color would require transforming the segmented hair images into numerical features, which could lose some information or introduce noise. XGBoost is also not designed for image classification tasks, and may not achieve high accuracy or performance.
