A quantile-quantile plot (Q-Q plot) is a graphical tool that compares a data distribution and a specified probability distribution. If the points in a Q-Q plot appear to fall on a straight line, that is evidence that the data can be approximately modeled by the target distribution. Although it is
The potential for artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to transform the way health care and therapies are delivered is tremendous. It’s not surprising that the health care and life sciences industries are being flooded with information about how these new technologies will change everything. While it’s
When I fill up my daily-driver Prius, the price of gasoline isn't that important. But when I occasionally take a trip in my V8 Suburban, I pay a lot more attention! Therefore I was pleasantly surprised when I noticed that gasoline prices have been falling. How much have they fallen,
Now is your chance to learn even more about SAS hash tables with four additional articles on the subject.
Diese Frage bekomme ich von Nicht-Data-Scientists immer häufiger gestellt. Und es ranken sich viele Meinungen und Mythen um diese Expertengruppe. Genau aus diesem Grund habe ich mich mit Simon Greiner, einem angehenden Data Scientist und erfahrenen IT-Berater, unterhalten. Ein Mythos über Data Scientists: sie lesen keine Bücher mehr. Stimmt nicht!
This Is the latest installment in my series of posts dedicated to describing IoT applications in retail. Why do I want retailers to move more quickly in their widescale adoption of IoT in the coming year? Because I'm confident they'll see results, and these use cases help explain how. As
In the second of three posts on using automated analysis with SAS Visual Analytics, we used the automated analysis object to get a better understanding of our variable of interest, X-Sell and Up-sell Flag, and how it is influenced by other variables in our dataset. In this third and final
„Für mich heißt Internet of Things, dass hier alles rotiert wie in einem Wäschetümmler und es weder Durcheinander noch Stillstand gibt.“ Frau Dönmek hatte Lenin und mich am Werkstor in Cedorf abgeholt und uns gleich in die Halle zu ihrer Anlage geführt: „Wir arbeiten an der Kapazitätsgrenze. Was wir wegen
A social worker at a software company. On the surface, the two don’t seem to go together. Why would a social worker work for a software company? But asking that question forces us to evaluate other roles that contribute to the SAS experience: Why would an artist choose to bring
When you overlay two series in PROC SGPLOT, you can either plot both series on the same axis or you can assign one series to the main axis (Y) and another to a secondary axis (Y2). If you use the Y and Y2 axes, they are scaled independently by default,
AI seems to be mentioned everywhere these days. But how can AI be used in day-to-day work? Here, Katherine Taylor explains an example of "practical AI" in banking using SAS Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning. She'll explore more business problems and industries in future posts.
Does this situation sound familiar? You have a complex analysis that must be finished urgently. The data was delivered late and its quality and structure are far from the expected standard. The time pressure to present the results is huge, and your SAS program is not giving you the expected
Sometimes it is difficult to know what parameters to use when projecting map data onto Esri or OpenStreetMaps in PROC SGMAP. The shapefile .PRJ file contains everything you need to set these parameters in PROC GPROJECT. In a previous blog, you saw how to lookup projections at a web site,
My New Year's resolution: “Unclutter your life” and I hope this post will help you do the same. Here I share with you a data preparation approach and SAS coding technique that will significantly simplify, unclutter and streamline your SAS programming life by using data templates. Dictionary.com defines template as
Everyone loves pancakes. But who has time to slave over a hot griddle flipping pancake, after pancake, after pancake while listening to hungry, grumbling family members waiting impatiently for the next batch of pancakes to be ready? Well, sheet pan pancakes are here to save the day!
