A previous article shows that you can run a simple (one-variable) isotonic regression by using a quadratic programming (QP) formulation. While I was reading a book about computational geometry, I learned that there is a connection between isotonic regression and the convex hull of a certain set of points. Whaaaaat?
The new SAS developer portal has a permanent home Say sayonara to the old SAS developer portal. We recently shut it down. The new portal is live and has a new home. The old and new sites were living side by side while we finished up some development work. Now
