Across a wide variety of industries, SAS users are leaning into the power of data to glean relevant insights and identify new opportunities. Through analytics, they are solving complex problems, discovering practical insights, and making a difference in their fields and communities. How can others join their efforts and use
Recently I wrote about numerical analysis problem: the accurate computation of log(1+x) when x is close to 0. A naive computation of log(1+x) loses accuracy if you call the LOG function, which is why the SAS language provides the built-in LOG1PX for this computation. In addition, I showed that you
En el último año se ha observado la llegada de nuevos inversores extranjeros a México, sobre todo por la parte de la industria manufacturera, que ha traído consigo crecimiento económico para el país. De acuerdo con datos de la Asociación para la Tecnología de Manufactura (AMT, por sus siglas en
The world’s largest rugby tournament returns for the knockout stages. This blog post explores how probability and simulation can be used to predict likely winners in each of the knockout stages. Team sports are dynamic, time-varying and complex topics to model. When modeling regular competitions, such as domestic leagues, it
SAS SVP Kimberly May provides an update about the new SAS Customer Service Portal.
October 13 is National M&M Day in the US. It’s a time to reignite the debate about whether you can taste the difference between the different colored chocolate-filled candies. If you’re like me, equally as enjoyable as eating M&Ms is taking a crack at how many of them are in
Jak firmy tracą pieniądze? Oczywiście w różny sposób. Dzisiaj przyjrzymy się stratom w procesach zakupowych. Na początek dwa przykłady. W firmie zatrudniającej 75 tysięcy pracowników i współpracującej z około 120 tysiącami dostawców zbadano 480 tysięcy zamówień i ponad 800 tysięcy faktur. Przyjrzano się również pracownikom oraz związkom pomiędzy pracownikami i
Mój kolejny artykuł chcę poświęcić roli analityki w całym procesie oceny ryzyka kredytowego klienta firmy telekomunikacyjnej – od momentu złożenia aplikacji aż do windykacji. Postaram się przedstawić, jakie wsparcie zapewnia analityka w każdym z etapów tego procesu, czego można od niej oczekiwać, aby zmaksymalizować efekty biznesowe. Schemat prezentujący poszczególne etapy
As the holiday season approaches, businesses may be bracing for what’s been all too common in recent years – supply chain disruption. Retail and consumer goods industries have been hit with disruptions from every direction: profound shifts in consumer preferences, materials shortages, weather events, and geopolitical activities, to name just
Panel data are commonly used in today’s economics research. Panel data regression stands out as a powerful tool that aids in unraveling trends and patterns that evolve over time. This tool is particularly valuable when considering hidden factors in the investigations of cause-and-effect relationships. In this post, you will be
Steam engines sparked the first Industrial Revolution, electricity energized the second, and early automation and the assembly line powered the third. Now, the fourth (often called smart manufacturing) is being shaped by artificial intelligence, advanced analytics, the internet and real-time data. Smart technologies are transforming manufacturing. It starts on the
Cancer is scary and affects most of us, either directly or indirectly. It is a complex condition with possible causes including poor diet, environmental toxins, genetics, infections, viruses, stress, tobacco use, lack of exercise and more. While no one knows the exact cause of cancer, the World Health Organization states that
Welcome to the continuation of my series Getting Started with Python Integration to SAS Viya. In this post I'll show how to create user defined functions (UDFs) for the distributed CAS server using the SWAT package. Once the UDF is created you can use it on the CAS server with programming
SAS supports a special function for the accurate evaluation of log(1+x) when x is near 0. The LOG1PX function is useful because a naive computation of log(1+x) loses accuracy when x is near 0. This article demonstrates two general approximation techniques that are often used in numerical analysis: the Taylor
SAS는 2020년 1월, LTS 2020.1 버전의 SAS Viya 4를 출시했습니다. SAS Viya 4는 기존 SAS의 솔루션인 SAS 9, SAS Viya 3.5 버전과는 달리 완전한 클라우드 네이티브 버전의 솔루션입니다. 오늘 포스팅에서는 클라우드 네이티브 SAS Viya 4의 서비스인 CAS(Cloud Analytics Service, 이하 CAS)의 라이프 사이클에 대해서 알아보겠습니다. 1. CAS란 무엇일까요? CAS는 고성능
