When I first started as a data scientist, there was a gap. I met with dozens of organizations who would invest time and resources into building accurate and tuned models and then ask, “What now?” They had a fantastic model in hand but couldn’t get it into a place and
In my first article on hyperparameter autotuning, I used a cake analogy to show how to use hyperparameter autotuning with Optuna and the sasviya.ml package in Python to improve detecting Higgs bosons in a particle accelerator. SAS Viya Workbench now supports hyperparameter autotuning in SAS code with a variety of
Generative AI has seen drastic improvement in image, video, audio, and text generation within the last few years. Humans, on the other hand, are still catching up on determining when it’s appropriate to use Generative AI and how to review the content generated by AI before sharing it with others.
Before we get started, I’d like to acknowledge that we’re inundated with buzzwords – all day, every day. I work in marketing, so I totally understand I’m part of the group to blame (sorry). But hear me out: “AI engineering” not only makes sense, but it’s critical to the future
Experimentation is the engine of innovation. Whether optimizing manufacturing processes, testing new materials, or simulating policy outcomes, the ability to run controlled experiments is essential. Design of experiments (DOE) is a well-established statistical methodology that helps organizations systematically explore the relationships between variables and outcomes. However, traditional DOE has its
Hyperparameter autotuning intelligently optimizes machine learning model performance by automatically testing parameter combinations, balancing accuracy and generalizability, as demonstrated in a real-world particle physics use case.
Government regulations, technological advancements and improvements in energy forecasting are complex issues that require deep discussion. Several pivotal thoughts were shared through a recent webinar dedicated to unraveling these complexities, shedding light on the nuances of the issues and their interconnectedness. Here are a few key takeaways from that discussion.
Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence that teaches computers to understand visuals. Using digital images from cameras and videos and deep learning models, machines can learn to recognize and categorize objects and respond to their surroundings based on what they “see.” Computer vision's accuracy has skyrocketed in the

Platforma SAS® Viya® oferuje wiele algorytmów klasy uczenia maszynowego (machine learning, ML) czy sztucznej inteligencji (artificial intelligence, AI) do trenowania modeli predykcyjnych (klasyfikacyjnych itp.), takich jak lasy losowe (random forest) czy wzmocnienia gradientowe (gradient boosting), jak również modele uczenia głębokiego (deep learning). Choć wielokrotnie potwierdziły one swoją przydatność w praktyce,
I will show you how to deploy multi-stage deep learning (DL) models in SAS Event Stream Processing (ESP) and leverage ESP on Edge via Docker containers to identify events of interest.
Let's create a Multi-stage Computer Vision model to detect objects on high-resolution imagery taken from an aerial view. The goal is to locate a dog and determine if he is wearing a scarf or not and what color the scarf is.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are one of the newer machine learning algorithms that data scientists are tapping into. When I first heard it, I wondered how can networks be adversarial? I envisioned networks with swords drawn going at it. Close… but I can assure you that no networks were harmed in the making of this article.
Note from Gül Ege Sr. Director, Analytics R&D, IoT: The pattern of training in the Cloud, with your choices of framework and inferencing at the Edge with a target environment, are especially common in Internet of Things (IoT). In IoT, there is a proliferation of hardware environments on the Edge.
Safety, efficacy, speed and costs must all be prioritized and balanced in the delivery of life-changing therapies to patients. A drug that's quickly and cost-efficiently delivered to market, but isn’t effective and safe is unacceptable. An effective, safe drug that doesn’t get to patients in time to save lives has
Tis the season for my annual, fun Christmas themed blog post! This is the seventh year and my tenth song. I hope you enjoy this 2020 holiday song (to the tune of Rockin' around the Christmas Tree). Hackin around the Decision Tree at the SAS party hackathon Data science algorithms
In this article, we summarize our SAS research paper on the application of reinforcement learning to monitor traffic control signals which was recently accepted to the 34th Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS 2020), Vancouver, Canada. This annual conference is hosted by the Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation, a non-profit corporation that promotes the exchange of ideas in neural information processing systems across multiple disciplines.
Images and artificial intelligence You don’t have to be a computer geek to know that artificial intelligence (AI) is having a moment in the sun just now. In recent years, we have made huge progress in the field of AI, and particularly through deep learning algorithms. These algorithms have been
An embedding model is a way to reduce the dimensionality of input data, such as images. Consider this to be a type of data preparation applied to image analysis. When an embedding model is used, input images are converted into low-dimensional vectors that can be more easily used by other computer vision tasks. The key to good embedding is to train the model so that similar images are converted to similar vectors.
Let's talk about using DLPy to model employee retention through a survival analysis model. Survival analysis is used to model time-to-event. Examples of time-to-event include the time until an employee leaves a company, the time until a disease goes into remission, or the time until a mechanical part fails. The
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

Otros usos de la IA incluyen: Atención a la salud. Las aplicaciones de IA
Computer vision can augment radiologists and make the image interpretation process cheaper, faster and more accurate. The ultimate goal is to achieve a better patient outcome facilitated by the use of computer vision.
Jordan Bakerman's session at ODSC Europe inspired this post, which provides an overview of deep learning and how factorization machines work.
Was haben SAS Viya und die österreichischen Berge gemeinsam? Eine ganze Menge! Neulich besuchten mich Freunde aus Tirol am Neusiedler See, also im Burgenland. Bekanntermaßen ist Tirol ein Bundesland im Hochgebirge. Entsprechend amüsiert waren meine Freunde, als ich ihnen den Rosenberg und den Ungerberg in der Nachbarschaft zeigte. „Bei uns
Thanks to recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and deep learning, image recognition has become a reality.
Empecemos por aclarar un concepto que hoy se presta fácilmente a confusiones. El Aprendizaje Profundo (Aprendizaje Profundo o “AP”) es un tipo de Aprendizaje Automático que entrena una computadora para que adquiera algunas capacidades de los seres humanos, como el reconocimiento del habla, la identificación de imágenes o plantear predicciones.
