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
I recently showed how to use simulation to estimate the power of a statistical hypothesis test. The example (a two-sample t test for the difference of means) is a simple SAS/IML module that is very fast. Fast is good because often you want to perform a sequence of simulations over
“El deporte moderno se ha convertido en una gigante base de datos que hay que saber entender para obtener los mejores resultados”, dice Jhon Jairo Osorio, un reconocido periodista deportivo colombiano especializado en ciclismo. Jhon Jairo suele participar como comentarista en las transmisiones que canales de televisión colombianos hacen de
Lisa Lucas explains why people, knowledge and tech are vital for contact tracing.
Could you pass a test on coronavirus testing terms? Jim Harris can help.
Vivimos en la era de la hiperconectividad, nos comunicamos con el mundo en un entorno cada vez más digital. Y, precisamente, una de las principales consecuencias del COVID-19, al margen de las sanitarias y las socioeconómicas, ha sido una significativa aceleración de la digitalización tanto a nivel individual como empresarial.
Bone broth has been around for centuries, it’s the traditional way to make soup or stew. It just seems like a new thing since many of us don’t tend to make soups or broths from scratch anymore. It has become popular due to its supposed healing properties as well.
