[Editor's note: This post was co-authored with Fritz Lehman, COO of Zencos] In 1976, the blockbuster movie Jaws was the number one grossing film. Why? Because it had a great villain – the great white shark. The movie told a vivid (and all too familiar) story about plans gone awry
딥 러닝은 인공 지능과 함께 유비쿼터스가 된 머신 러닝의 한 영역입니다. 딥 러닝 모델의 복잡하고 뇌와 유사한 구조는 대량의 데이터에서 복잡한 패턴을 찾는 데 사용됩니다. 이러한 모델은 일반 지도 학습 모델, 시계열, 음성 인식, 객체 탐지 및 분류, 감성 분석의 성능을 크게 향상시켰습니다. 사전 정의된 방정식을 실행하도록 데이터를 구성하는 대신
The first principle of analytics is about bringing the right analytics technology to the right place at the right time. Whether your data are on-premises, in the cloud, or at the edges of the network – analytics needs to be there with it. Being true to this principle means we
Jim Harris examines coronavirus terms that are crucial to data-driven decisions in the pandemic.
The companies I usually deal with, especially healthy and successful ones, often don’t believe that they need to change. However, I think this is where problems take root. I believe changes should be made when things are going well because when they have gone wrong, it's too late. You no
Every presidential candidate has a list of states they’re expected to win, but there are always states that are too close to call because they have similar numbers of registered voters for each of the two dominant political parties: Democrat and Republican. It’s in these “swing” states that candidates invest
SAS has always believed in the power of education, but in today’s data-driven economy, it’s more important than ever to ensure our students are introduced to data science at an early age. We as a company are focusing our resources on creating student experiences in data literacy, computer science and
A global teaching resource for post-COVID-19 academia During the COVID-19 pandemic, governments used data science modelling to justify actions around lockdowns, and then again, in due course, when they eased restrictions. These actions affected billions of citizens’ lives and livelihoods. The importance of analytical calculation and competence was brought home,
SAS' Véronique Van Vlasselaer reveals why managing model performance is as important as putting them into production.
The triangulation theorem for polygons says that every simple polygon can be triangulated. In fact, if the polygon has V vertices, you can decompose it into V-2 non-overlapping triangles. In this article, a "polygon" always means a simple polygon. Also, a "random point" means one that is drawn at random
Discovery is an important part of setting up your analysis for success – essentially it prevents you from plunging into a haystack to try to find that elusive needle, and rather, helps you organize the haystack into neater, compact organized bales that you can navigate with ease. Proper discovery can help you more efficiently find patterns in your data set.
Here in the United States, we have our general election (where we elect the president) every four years - and 2020 happens to be one of those election years. This time we seem to have a lot more people voting early. I can't tell you the reason they're voting early
A prima vista, potrebbe sembrare che data science e psicologia abbiano ben poco in comune. Tuttavia, di recente ho iniziato ad appassionarmi di psicologia e penso che tra le due ci siano molte più somiglianze di quanto si possa pensare. 1. Sia Data Science che psicologia ci aiutano a rispondere
Teknoloji dur durak tanımıyor, günbegün yeni buluşlarla, atılımlarla ve daha nicesiyle tanışıyoruz. Daha da önemlisi, bunu artık anlık olarak yapıyoruz. İnternet çağının katkılarıyla, Türkiye’de yaşayan bir kişi dünyanın herhangi bir yerinde, dün yapılmış bir çalışmayı hemen kişisel bilgisayarının rahatlığıyla okuyabiliyor.

Who Helps the World? Girls! Decades of research show there's one strong difference in what young men and women say they value in a future career: The opportunity to help others. And young women are far more likely to say that they want a job where they can have a positive
What does the AI enterprise of the future look like? That’s a tough question that I’ve been asked to consider, along with a distinguished panel at Valley ML AI Expo 2020. The title of the panel is, “Life, the Universe and the AI Enterprise of the Future.” Based on an initial chat with panel chair Gautam Khera, I’ve written up some possible topics we’ll be covering on the panel. Consider
Depending on who you talk to, you'll get varying definitions and opinions regarding demand sensing. Anything from sensing short-range replenishment based on sales orders, to the manual blending of point-of-sales (POS) data and shipments. But a key component for retailers and CPG companies is accurately forecasting short-term consumer demand to
How can you efficiently generate N random uniform points in a triangular region of the plane? There is a very cool algorithm (which I call the reflection method) that makes the process easy. I no longer remember where I saw this algorithm, but it is different from the "weighted average"
“Technology is an industry that eats its young, it is rare to come across providers that have been around for more than a human generation.” Tony Bear, Big on Data With more than 40 years in the market, SAS is one of the rare technology providers that has been around

Now that we are many months into the COVID-19 pandemic, we can start to reexamine the data and look for trends. This time, I want to explore how COVID-19 has been spreading around the US. I do this by animating a county map over time. What is animation? Are you
Over the last 30 years, manufacturing in Romania has seen huge changes from a planned economy to a market-based one. It now has a very diverse manufacturing scene, with both large and small companies, and a wide range of products from steel through to finished goods. However, few manufacturers are
ModelOps is NOT a one-size-fits-all approach. It's important to identify the appropriate level of sophistication based on both the organization’s current readiness and its current and future business needs. My previous articles on Medium talked about why organizations should choose ModelOps, and how to implement ModelOps using a holistic approach
The retail sector has been in a state of change for many years now. Retailers have long been discussing the shift to online – or rather the correct balance between online and "bricks and mortar" – and how to cater to customers’ desire to use multiple channels for different parts
Being overwhelmed by the volume of news isn’t a new phenomenon. But today, our sense of being overwhelmed has increased and triggered feelings of fear, frustration and anxiety, given the ongoing developments and research tied to COVID-19. How do we sift through the volume of information facing us and truly understand whether the news we consume is factual or based on
A previous article discusses the confidence band for the mean predicted value in a regression model. The article shows a "graded confidence band plot," which I saw in Claus O. Wilke's online book, Fundamentals of Data Visualization (Section 16.3). It communicates uncertainty in the predictions. A graded band plot is
SAS is on a marketing transformation mission. One that has targeting and personalization at the forefront.
