If you scroll through job postings right now, you’ll see a pattern. Plenty of roles asking people to train models, fine-tune outputs, build agents and automate workflows. Fewer ones are asking for the kind of judgment that used to sit at the center of how decisions get made. At the
A previous article discusses regression splines and how to use the EFFECT statement in SAS regression procedures to specify the location of knots for a regressor variable, X. Knots are breakpoints that partition the range of X into subintervals. The splines are defined on a set of adjacent subintervals. The
As we celebrate 50 years, we’re looking back at our statistical roots. They started in agriculture and expanded into life sciences, insurance and many other industries. Take a journey through time to hear the story shared by one of our first SAS employees. “SAS co-founder and Executive Vice President, John
Learn how supply chain management evolves from isolated tools to integrated agents that address the complexity and interdependence in S&OP.
You don’t lose sleep over dashboards. You lose sleep over decisions. You’re standing on the factory floor, surrounded by the hum of million-dollar assets, and you know something is off. An alert flashes on a screen: "Anomaly Detected." But what now? In that split second, the gap between a minor
We know eating in a way that decreases harmful chemicals in our environment and our bodies is a worthy cause, but trying to eat to support both your health and the Earth’s can feel overwhelming — especially when you also have a budget, a busy schedule, and a brain that’s
Splines are useful tools for fitting regression models to data. A spline replaces a single variable (call it X) with several other variables, which are a spline basis for X. When using a spline basis, the shape and location of the basis functions depend on the placement of knots. Knots
As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, this Earth Day carries special meaning for us at SAS. For me, it’s also a moment to step back and evaluate what has worked and what it really takes to sustain environmental progress over time. Reflecting on five decades of environmental stewardship, we didn’t
En esta entrada comparto un contenido muy relevante generado por Marinela Profi, Global AI & Generative AI Market Strategy Lead de SAS, y Manisha Khanna, Global Product Marketing Lead for AI & Analytics de SAS. La conversación global sobre la protección de la información adquiere una nueva dimensión en la
Most powerful stories begin with people. For the International Organization for Migration Uganda, that means individuals and communities uprooted by disasters and climate-driven migration. Their work sits at the intersection of uncertainty, where movement, risk and response are constantly shifting, often without a clear picture of what’s happening in real
Did you know that, for skewed distributions, the sample median is a biased estimator of the population median? You can show this in two ways. For any distribution, you can run a Monte Carlo simulation that reveals the bias. And, for some distributions (such as the exponential distribution), you can
Settling a claim. Underwriting a policy. Serving a customer. Every step in insurance is a decision and every decision shapes trust. From quote to claim, insurers operate in a continuous loop of high-stakes choices. These are the moments that determine whether customers feel protected or exposed. That pressure is only
Turning data into real decisions takes the right mix of technology, industry expertise and execution. Often, it’s partnerships that make the difference. Our partners play a critical role in helping organizations turn data into trusted decisions. In a milestone 50th anniversary year for SAS, it’s especially meaningful to celebrate the
When we published our Five Tips for Choosing a Statistical Computing Environment back in 2023, the conversation was about what to look for. If you’re evaluating how to select a statistical computing environment, start with this overview. The following post focuses on what has changed and what a modern SCE
Learn how an AI voice agent built with SAS Viya and LLMs can transform fraud detection into real-time, automated fraud resolution through customer interaction and governed decisioning.
