Ein Wortwechsel mit Prof. Dr. Roland Potthast. Er ist der Leiter der Datenassimilation beim Deutschen Wetterdienst.
Twelve years ago, the banking industry suffered deep reputational damage in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis. Bankers took the blame – in some cases deservedly – for large-scale economic problems that took a severe toll on many of society’s most vulnerable people. The crisis severely shook banks

I got a lot of feedback about my recent article about how to find roots of nonlinear functions by using the SOLVE function in PROC FCMP. A colleague asked how the FCMP procedure stores the functions. Specifically, why the OUTLIB= option on the PROC FCMP statement use a three-level syntax:
It is becoming common to attribute huge changes in any sector to part of the global response to the pandemic. I’d argue that the pandemic has simply accelerated changes that were already happening in this sector. To test this hypothesis, I caught up with Alex Kwiatkowski, Principal Industry Consultant for
Today’s blog post links to 3 podcasts recorded with Dr. Shanun Kunnavatana, the Clinical Director of Easterseals UCP Autism Services. Dr. Kunnavatana graciously joined me for 3 conversations about children with Autism (linked below). The first is about Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), a therapeutic intervention. The second is about Managing Challenging
Meet Mario Weitenbacher in this second post of the Humans of SAS Services series.
All leaders must have the courage to challenge the status quo and have the personality to influence stakeholders across the organization.
SAS Viya is an open analytics platform accessible from interfaces or various coding languages. REST API is one of the widely used interfaces. Multiple resources exist on how to access SAS Visual Analytics reports using SAS Viya REST API. For example Programmatically listing data sources in SAS Visual Analytics by
Back in 2018 we asked our staff what tips they had for how to get to your desk and back in an hour and shared it in our blog. Many of those tips still apply. However, now with many of us still working from home, we may find our desks and
Finding the root (or zero) of a nonlinear function is an important computational task. In the case of a one-variable function, you can use the SOLVE function in PROC FCMP to find roots of nonlinear functions in the DATA step. This article shows how to use the SOLVE function to
Recently, we announced a strategic partnership between SAS and Microsoft that includes deep integration for SAS technologies across all three of Microsoft’s clouds: Azure, Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365. As migration of data to the cloud continues to increase, SAS is engineering our software to work in the cloud through
Real value comes from data when you can start integrating disparate data sources together.
What is automated prediction? Automated prediction, in less than a minute, runs several analytic models (such as decision trees, gradient boosting, and logistic and linear regression) on a specific variable of your choice. Most of the remaining variables in your dataset are automatically analyzed as factors that might influence your specified variable. They are called underlying factors. SAS then chooses the one model (champion model) that most accurately predicts your target variable. The model prediction and the underlying factors are then displayed. You can adjust the values of the underlying factors to determine how the model prediction changes with each adjustment.
Remember Subconscious Musings? It was the name of the blog Radhika Kulkarni (now retired Vice President of SAS R&D) started in 2012. She wrote about trends that drove innovation and challenges that expanded the boundaries of what we thought was possible. It eventually evolved into what we now know as
