Every year hundreds of dedicated SAS® users and event volunteers work tirelessly to create an amazing conference experience for SAS Global Forum attendees. This year, as you know, COVID-19 changed our plans. But our devoted team of volunteers, including our conference chairs and session presenters, was still determined to provide
By transferring non-differentiating activities to modular industry utilities, banks could potentially improve return on equity by 60 to 100 basis points.
올해 초부터 시작된 코로나19 사태가 전 세계적으로 장기화되면서 ‘사회적 거리두기’가 새로운 일상으로 자리잡았습니다. 이에 따라 요즘 대부분의 시간을 집에서 보내며 온라인 강의를 듣는 학생들과 재택근무를 하는 직장인들도 많아졌는데요. #언택트 #집콕 #홈코노미 #홀로(HOLO) 등의 신조어들이 이러한 달라진 트렌드를 보여주고 있습니다. 공부를 하든 일을 하든, 집에서 오랜 시간을 보내는 것에는 꽤 명확한
In some cases, recovery provides immunity to future infections, however the evidence currently available for COVID-19 cannot confirm this immunity stage.
Data tell a story. A purpose of data visualization is to convey that story to the reader in a clear and impactful way. Sometimes you can let the data "speak for themselves" in an unadorned graphic, but sometimes it is helpful to add reference lines to a graph to emphasize
We’re problem solvers, explorers and knowledge seekers – always asking, “What if?” At SAS, your curiosity matters – whether you’re developing algorithms, sharing stories, or answering critical questions. Curiosity is one of our core values, and it influences everything we do here at SAS – even the art that adorns
This year has been a turbulent one in a very short three months. Being tossed into the storm meant finding a new way to balance work and life when the two are forced to exist in the same shared space. We may not have chosen this situation, but it is
Yeni tip korona virus (COVID-19) ile yapılan global mücadeleye veri bilimi ışığında katkıda bulunmak ister misiniz? Uzmanların belirttiği üzere, “sosyal mesafe”ye dikkat etmek ve temel hijyen kurallarını takip etmek başta olacak şekilde, almamız gereken önlemler var. Veri bilimciler ise bu pandeminin en etkili şekilde yönetilmesinde çeşitli projelerle yardımcı olmaktalar. Sizler
By this point you may be wondering whether the so-called hill that represents the move to operationalization may actually be a mountain.
Over the last few weeks, the world has experienced unprecedented events. The current situation with COVID-19 continues to develop rapidly, and it’s requiring parents to think outside the box to solve problems – from home. With their new, sometimes invasive co-workers. Their kids. Parents don’t cease to be parents when
Through hyperparameter autotuning, you can maximize a model's performance without maximizing effort. While SAS searches the hyperparameter space in the background, you are free to pursue other work.
Every day we face risks. If we drive to work, we risk a fatal auto accident. If we eat red meat and fatty foods, we risk a heart attack. If we go out in public during a pandemic, we risk contracting a disease. A logical response to risk is to
Interview mit Wissenschaftsministerin Theresia Bauer, Baden-Württemberg.
Gli avvenimenti delle ultime settimane si sono velocemente imposti sulle nostre routine lavorative e non, stravolgendole. In meno di un mese l’Italia, e poco dopo tutta l’Europa, si è trovata ad affrontare una grave epidemia con delle restrizioni drastiche ma necessarie. #restateacasa è diventato l’imperativo da rispettare e la maggior
Deep learning is an area of machine learning that has become ubiquitous with artificial intelligence. The complex, brain-like structure of deep learning models is used to find intricate patterns in large volumes of data. These models have heavily improved the performance of general supervised models, time series, speech recognition, object
For Climate Month I thought I’d research something on the positive side of the equation. My last two climate posts were a bit gloomy, as they focused on greenhouse gasses and ocean acidification. Instead we’re going to tackle a product adoption issue related to the climate: When might the United
I have written several articles about how to work with continuous probability distributions in SAS. I always emphasize that it is important to be able to compute the four essential functions for working with a statistical distribution. Namely, you need to know how to generate random values, how to compute
SAS Global Forum 2020 is not the conference experience we thought it would be. Thousands of us had planned to gather in person to share our enthusiasm and knowledge about SAS and power of data and analytics. We were going to combine our skills and knowledge to inspire one another
These are incredibly tough times, and fortunately, everyone I know is still healthy, safe and doing everything they can to stay that way. I know I'm lucky -- the worst I've suffered so far under coronavirus stay-at-home orders is sports withdrawal. I'm trying to fill that void in my life
SAS' Charu Shankar shares six tips for landing a job as a SAS user.
Being a state governor has never been more difficult than right at this moment, because the extreme steps governors are being forced to take in order to protect their citizens’ health are having an equally extreme impact on other critical aspects of our society. In the face of social distancing
Gespräch mit Ranga Yogeshwar über die Chancen von Krisen. Miteinander mehr in andere Länder blicken. Und die KI? Was wird aus ihr?
During an epidemic, such as the coronavirus pandemic of 2020, the media often shows graphs of the cumulative numbers of confirmed cases for different countries. Often these graphs use a logarithmic scale for the vertical axis. In these graphs, a straight line indicates that new cases are increasing at an
Most organisations that must maintain a physical network have similar challenges in keeping their networks safe and operational. Whether you run an energy distribution network, a telecommunications network, or a road, rail or canal network, you need to keep it clear of obstructions. And one of the biggest culprits tends
Jim Harris shows how data, analytics and humans work together to form the "insight equation."
Over the last few weeks, the world has experienced unprecedented events. The current situation with COVID-19 is developing rapidly, and it’s requiring people around the world think outside the box to creatively solve problems – from home. Remote working may be a change for some, and it can be hard
Nos primeiros dias e semanas de qualquer problema de saúde global generalizado, particularmente num surto de rápida evolução como o coronavírus, existem muitas incógnitas. A visualização de dados pode ser um bom ponto de partida para perceber tendências e transformar dados dispersos em algo útil. A capacidade de visualizar a
Now that COVID-19 is spreading in the US, I thought it might be helpful to view the data at a more granular level. Follow along as I plot the county data on a map and discuss how the color-binning can influence people's perception of the data. Maps like this can
Following is editor-in-chief Len Tashman's preview of the Spring 2020 issue of Foresight: The International Journal of Applied Forecasting. Preview of Foresight (Spring 2020) This Spring 2020 issue of Foresight—number 57 since the journal began in 2005— leads off with Associate Editor Mike Gilliland’s discussion of The M4 Forecasting Competition:
To foster digital business transformation, banks need to redesign both internal and customer-facing processes to embed data-driven decision-making.
