SAS' Greg Massey describes a real-world example of digital transformation for a large customer grappling with manually reviewing patient medical records.
Good educators are more than a source of knowledge; they inspire, innovate and continuously adapt to provide their students with the best learning experiences. They embrace new technologies, foster critical thinking and prepare students for future challenges. Recognizing their importance, SAS recently honored educators at SAS Innovate 2024. This year’s
Learn how to fit a random forest and use your model to score new data. In Part 6 and Part 7 of this series, we fit a logistic regression and decision tree to the Home Equity data we saved in Part 4. In this post we will fit a Random
Synthetic data generation has intrigued across industries for its many use cases, including fraud detection, clinical trials, worker safety and law enforcement. One of the main benefits is the low cost of creating synthetic data, which is often cheaper than collecting actual demographic, psychographic or behavior-based information. With such data,
Step into the vibrant, insightful platform that is theCUBE, where industry leaders don’t just talk tech; they unpack AI’s impact on our world. Eight quotes aren’t enough to describe all the knowledge shared by SAS leaders during theCUBE’s session at SAS Innovate 2024. But this blog post would go on
Batch manufacturing involves producing goods in batches rather than in a continuous stream. This approach is common in industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and materials processing, where precise control over the production process is essential to ensure product quality and consistency. One critical aspect of batch manufacturing is the need to manage and understand inherent time delays that occur at various stages of the process.
Imagine stuffing a 500,000-square-foot event space into a 5,000-square-foot hallway. That was the crazy idea I had when I checked out the Innovation Hub. The Innovation Hub was the center of the action at SAS Innovate in Las Vegas. Attendees saw demos of the hottest new SAS solutions, met the technical
The ancients’ practice of publicizing set-in-stone personal records would run anathema to modern data privacy laws. These days, in lieu of using contemporary personally identifiable records, I anonymized a 4,000-year-old tax record from ancient Babylon to describe three principles for effective data anonymization at scale: Embracing rare attributes: values and
Bright ideas came to light as we closed out SAS Innovate 2024. Day three opened on a high note with a fun performance from iLuminate. After that, we jumped into learning about our partners’ work and SAS innovations. How partners are helping others SAS Vice President of Global Channels John Carey
Have you ever heard the saying, “Products that don’t perform won’t be trusted, and products that can’t be trusted aren’t worth the machines they’re coded on”? Maybe not, because I just made it up. But at SAS, as we continue to create products that perform and change the world, we
SAS® pairs perfectly with data and AI and many at SAS Innovate agree. SAS Innovate host and technical training consultant Dominique Weatherspoon welcomed attendees at the Aria in Las Vegas. SAS Chief Technology Officer Bryan Harris dove into a few important topics including innovation inspired by human need, how SAS
Over the past year, business leaders and technical minds have delved into the potential of generative AI (GenAI) beyond creative tasks like writing fun poems or generating silly images. We’ve been part of these conversations, actively exploring how GenAI can be used to help organizations manage their data, derive insights
Cloud computing and containerization are two technologies that directly impact a CIO's core responsibilities: delivering IT services efficiently and effectively for the business. Beyond their technical implications, these technologies represent a strategic shift toward meeting business needs for agility, scalability and faster innovation. Striking a balance between opportunities and
Welcome to the continuation of my series Getting Started with Python Integration to SAS Viya. Given the exciting developments around SAS & Snowflake, I'm eager to demonstrate how to effortlessly connect Snowflake to the massively parallel processing CAS server in SAS Viya with the Python SWAT package. If you're interested
Developers and modelers face challenges when finding and validating data, collaborating across groups, and transferring work to an enterprise platform. Using a self-service, on-demand compute environment for data analysis and machine learning models increases productivity and performance while minimizing IT support and cost. In this Q&A, Joe Madden, Senior Product
Comparing Logistic Regression and Decision Tree - Which of our models is better at predicting our outcome? Learn how to compare models using misclassification, area under the curve (ROC) charts, and lift charts with validation data. In part 6 and part 7 of this series we fit a logistic regression
Authors: Steven Harenberg and Amy Becker The total solar eclipse taking place across a thin band of the United States on April 8, 2024, is going to be a stellar event. In this post, we will help plan a journey to see the total solar eclipse. We will use algorithms
