For the Amazon Titan Picture Generator mannequin, you might want to present the pictures that you simply need to use for the fine-tuning and a caption for every picture. Amazon Bedrock expects your pictures to be saved on Amazon S3 and the pairs of pictures and captions to be offered in a JSONL format with a number of JSON strains.

Every JSON line is a pattern containing an image-ref, the S3 URI for a picture, and a caption that features a textual immediate for the picture. Your pictures should be in JPEG or PNG format. The next code reveals an instance of the format:

{"image-ref": "s3://bucket/path/to/image001.png", "caption": "<immediate textual content>"}
{"image-ref": "s3://bucket/path/to/image002.png", "caption": "<immediate textual content>"}
{"image-ref": "s3://bucket/path/to/image003.png", "caption": "<immediate textual content>"}

As a result of “Ron” and “Smila” are names that may be utilized in different contexts, corresponding to an individual’s identify, we add the identifiers “Ron the canine” and “Smila the cat” when creating the immediate to fine-tune our mannequin. Though it’s not a requirement for the fine-tuning workflow, this extra data offers extra contextual readability for the mannequin when it’s being personalized for the brand new lessons and can keep away from the confusion of ‘“Ron the canine” with an individual known as Ron and “Smila the cat” with the town Smila in Ukraine. Utilizing this logic, the next pictures present a pattern of our coaching dataset.
