Move beyond spreadsheets to data mining, forecasting, optimization – and more
See how to sample unstructured (text) data using SAS Viya and CAS actions. This post includes complete code to cluster the text documents via k-means, and treats the cluster memberships as strata for analysis.
Word Mover's Distance (WMD) is a distance metric used to measure the dissimilarity between two documents, and its application in text analytics was introduced by a research group from Washington University in 2015. The group's paper, From Word Embeddings To Document Distances, was published on the 32nd International Conference on Machine
SAS Visual Text Analytics provides dictionary-based and non-domain-specific tokenization functionality for Chinese documents, however sometimes you still want to get N-gram tokens. This can be especially helpful when the documents are domain-specific and most of the tokens are not included into the SAS-provided Chinese dictionary. What is an N-gram? An
SAS Viya is our latest extension of the SAS Platform and interoperable with SAS® 9.4. There were a number of SAS Viya presentations at SAS Global Forum 2018. In this series, we will review several of the most interesting talks. This post reviews Hadley Christoffels’ talk, A Need For Speed: Loading Data via the Cloud.
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) taking effect on 25 May 2018 pertains not only to organizations located within the EU; it applies to all companies processing and holding the personal data of data subjects residing in the European Union, regardless of the company’s location. Here are four selected SAS tools for GDPR that allow you to protect personal data in SAS reports by suppressing counts in small demographic group reports.
This post is an introduction to SAS Visual Forecasting 8.2. We'll build a Visual Forecasting (VF) Pipeline, which is a process flow diagram whose nodes represent tasks in the VF Process. The objective is to show how to perform the full analytics life cycle with large volumes of data: from accessing data and assigning variable roles accurately, to building forecasting models, to select a champion model and overriding the system generated forecast.
Inspired by curiosity and backed by the most powerful analytics in the world, SAS discovers a new planet in our Solar system. See how we used SAS Viya to make this historic discovery.
Gradient boosting is one of the most widely used machine learning models in practice. See how to use gradient boosting model for classification in SAS Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning.
Learn about the new feature of SAS Viya 3.3 that enables Kerberos delegation throughout the environment. It allows you to have end-user sessions in SAS Cloud Analytics Services that are able to use Kerberos to connect to Secured Hadoop.
With the release of SAS Viya 3.3, you now have the ability to pass implicit SQL queries to a variety of SQL data sources, including Hive. Here's what happens as users write SAS compliant SQL code.
