There are many ways to model a set of raw data by using a continuous probability distribution. It can be challenging, however, to choose the distribution that best models the data. Are the data normal? Lognormal? Is there a theoretical reason to prefer one distribution over another? The SAS has

Los modelos analíticos se han convertido en un elemento clave para la toma de decisiones en las organizaciones. Sin embargo, para conseguir una modelización óptima, es necesario tener presente una serie de consideraciones y buenas prácticas. Joaquín María Núñez Varo, Analista del Departamento de Evaluación del ICEX España, nos acompañó

O nadchodzącej rewolucji związanej z internetem rzeczy (IoT) pisze się dużo od wielu lat. Wiele już słyszeliśmy o zmianach w codziennym życiu i korzyściach dla nas wszystkich, które ta rewolucja ma ze sobą przynieść, ale wciąż nie widać zastosowań IoT na szeroką skalę. Największy rozgłos zyskały dotychczas inteligentne liczniki prądu/gazu,

As SAS delivered powerful end-to-end artificial intelligence & machine learning platform SAS® Viya®, more and more SAS users plan to adopt this new platform to produce faster outcomes and invaluable insights. The significant difference between SAS Viya and SAS 9 is, UTF-8 is the default session encoding in SAS Viya,

Does anyone write paper checks anymore? According to researchers at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (Greene, et al., 2020), the use of paper checks has declined 63% among US consumers since the year 2000. The researchers surveyed more than 3,000 consumers in 2017-2018 and discovered that only 7% of

When the NBA’s Orlando Magic opened Amway Center in 2010, the team quickly realized they possessed a wealth of untapped data capabilities. Known as pioneers in introducing AI to the NBA, they’ve since expanded their analytics and data footprint in partnership with SAS. Outside of competing on the court, the

Some readers read the article “how-to-evaluate-sas-expression-in-data-step-dynamically” and wonder if there is a same mechanism or functionality in DS2. As indicated in that article, SAS provides similar features in DATA step, PROC CAS and PROC Python, but some projects like ESP (Event Stream Processing) projects would store those expression definition in

“I knew what I wanted to do, but I didn’t know what the job title was,” explains Lisa. “The analyst relations role is perfect. It allows me to do what I love – teaching, meeting new people, project management – without losing the analytical skills I’ve honed in the legal

This summer, women have been making their mark across all industries. From technology to policing, SAS wants to highlight some impactful changes made over the past few months. Click through the articles below to learn about the way women are shaping the future. Intern Spotlight This summer, SAS hired

Between technological advancements in machine learning, the rise of AI and a growing interest in data-driven decisions, the demand for analytical talent has grown significantly in recent years. In today’s workforce, however, there is a lack of representation of people of color in the tech industry. According to Harnham’s Data

I have previously written about how to efficiently generate points uniformly at random inside a sphere (often called a ball by mathematicians). The method uses a mathematical fact from multivariate statistics: If X is drawn from the uncorrelated multivariate normal distribution in dimensiond, then S = r*X / ||X|| has

Welcome to the continuation of my series Getting Started with Python Integration to SAS Viya. In this post I'll show how to impute missing values in a distributed CAS table using the fillna method from the Pandas API in the SWAT package and the impute CAS action. Load and prepare data

We’re taught the rainbow has 7 primary colors - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet - and in this occasional series, we’ve discussed the unique set of nutrients and health benefits each of these colors provide. But what about the other colors that exist in nature?

A previous article shows how to use the MODELAVERAGE statement in PROC GLMSELECT in SAS to perform a basic bootstrap analysis of the regression coefficients and fit statistics. A colleague asked whether PROC GLMSELECT can construct bootstrap confidence intervals for the predicted mean in a regression model, as described in

Más del 5% de los ingresos anuales de las aseguradoras se pierden ante la perpetración del fraude, del que se registran un promedio de 2 mil 500 casos por año, divididos en 125 países, de acuerdo con la Asociación de Certificadores de Fraude de Estados Unidos. Estas cifras incluyen sólo
