We present Amazon Nova, a new generation of state-of-the-art foundation models that deliver frontier intelligence and industry-leading price performance. Amazon Nova Pro is a highly-capable multimodal model with the best combination of accuracy, speed, and cost for a wide range of tasks. Amazon Nova Lite is a low-cost multimodal model that is lightning fast for processing images, video, documents and text. Amazon Nova Micro is a text-only model that delivers our lowest-latency responses at very low cost. Amazon Nova Canvas is an image generation model that creates professional grade images with rich customization controls. Amazon Nova Reel is a video generation model offering high-quality outputs, customization, and motion control. Our models were built responsibly and with a commitment to customer trust, security, and reliability. We report benchmarking results for core capabilities, agentic performance, long context, functional adaptation, runtime performance, and human evaluation.

Logo detection plays an integral role in many applications. However, handling small logos is still difficult since they occupy too few pixels in the image, which burdens the extraction of discriminative features. The aggregation of small logos also brings a great challenge to the classification and localization of logos. To solve these problems, we creatively propose Cross-direction Task Decoupling Network (CTDNet) for small logo detection. We first introduce Cross-direction Feature Pyramid (CFP) to realize cross-direction feature fusion by adopting horizontal transmission and vertical transmission. In addition, Multi-frequency Task Decoupling Head (MTDH) decouples the classification and localization tasks into two branches. A multi frequency attention convolution branch is designed to achieve more accurate regression by combining discrete cosine transform and convolution creatively. Comprehensive experiments on four logo datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.
