Image understanding limitations

Understand the following limitations for Amazon Nova:

• Multilingual Image Understanding: The models have limited understanding of multilingual images and video frames and can struggle or hallucinate on similar tasks.

• People identification: The Amazon Nova models do not support the capability to identify or name individuals in images, documents or videos. The models will refuse to perform such tasks.

• Spatial reasoning: The Amazon Nova models have limited spatial reasoning capabilities. They may struggle with tasks that require precise localization or layout analysis.

• Small Text in Images/Videos: If the text in the image or video is too small, consider increasing relative size of the text in the image by cropping to relevant section while preserving necessary context.

• Counting: The Amazon Nova models can provide approximate counts of objects in an image, but may not always be precisely accurate, especially when dealing with large numbers of small objects.

• Inappropriate content: The Amazon Nova models will not process inappropriate or explicit images that violate the Acceptable Use Policy.

• Healthcare applications: Due to the sensitive nature of these artifacts, even though Amazon Nova models can give general analysis on healthcare images or videos, we do not recommend that you interpret complex diagnostic scans. Amazon Nova responses should never be considered a substitute for professional medical advice.
