前回の投稿 【冬休みに勉強しよう】アナリティクスの学習(1) Skill Builder for Students では、学生向けのリソース・ハブである Skill Builder for Students に登録し、e-Learningでの学習についてご紹介しました。取り上げた学習コースでは、SAS Visual Analytics をツールとして用いていましたが、このソフトウェアは SAS Viya と呼ばれるアナリティクス・プラットフォームで提供されます。 SAS Viya は次のような特徴を持っています。 アナリティクスによる課題解決に必要な「データの管理と準備」「分析による発見とモデル構築」「分析結果の実装」を一つのプラットフォームで提供 機械学習、ディープラーニング、テキスト解析、画像解析、予測、最適化などAI機能を網羅 グラフィカルな操作、SAS言語、Python、Rなどによるプログラミング、REST APIによる機能提供を実装し、アナリティクスへのアクセスをオープンにする これらの特徴は、企業や組織でアナリティクスを用いて価値を発揮するために必要なものでありますが、学生がデータ分析を学ぶ場面では必ずしも重要なものではないかもしれません。しかし、GUIやSAS言語、オープンソース言語など、それぞれの学生が得意とするスキル、今後のキャリアに役立つ技術を磨くプラットフォームとしては有用です。SAS Viya は商用またはアカデミア向けのライセンス提供がありますが、教育目的には無償の SAS Viya for Learners がSaaS形式で提供されています。 SAS Viya for Learners は、SAS Skill Builder for Students と同様に、大学ドメインのメールアドレスを登録したSASプロファイルをお持ちであれば、無料で登録・利用することができます。クラウドでの提供ですので、ソフトウェアをインストールする必要はなく、Webブラウザからアクセスするだけで利用できます。GUI操作での可視化(SAS Visual Analytics)や、機械学習モデル作成ツール(SAS Model Studio)、SASプログラミングについては、SAS Skill Builder for

学生の皆さんは今日から冬休みでしょうか。「卒論でそれどころじゃないよ!」という方もいるかもしれませんが、この期間に「何か新しい勉強を始めてみようかな」と思われる方も多いのではないでしょうか。 データサイエンティストが「21世紀で最もセクシーな仕事」と言われてから10年近くが経とうとしています。しかし、社会におけるデータの活用はまだまだ発展途上であり、そのための人材は依然として高い需要があります。「データサイエンティスト」はそのなかでも、多くの高度な知識と技能を持った人材ですが、デジタル・トランスフォーメーション(DX)と呼ばれる業務改革が進む中、高度人材だけでなく、より広範囲の人たちがデータを活用した仕事に従事することが求められています。数理科学とテクノロジーを駆使するデータサイエンティストでなくても、アナリティクスに関わり、自分なりの知識とスキルを発揮することができます。 SAS Skill Builder for Students は、SASソフトウェアと統計解析・機械学習を中心に、「データリテラシー」や「ビジュアライゼーション」といったより基礎的なの知識やスキルを無料で学習できます。また、認定資格取得の案内や、アナリティクスを活用したキャリアについての情報も提供しており、アナリティクスの初学者からデータサイエンティストのキャリアを構築しようとする学生まで、多くの方に活用いただけます。この機会にぜひ登録してください。 登録方法は次の4ステップ SAS Skill Builder for Students にアクセス SASプロファイルをお持ちでない学生は「SAS プロファイルを新規に登録」から登録 ※ 登録するメールアドレスは大学ドメイン(.ac.jpなど)のものを入力してください。 登録したSASプロファイルのメールアドレスを SAS Skill Builder for Students のログイン画面で入力 My Trainingの画面でLicense Agreementを読み、同意のチェックボックスにチェックを入れて「Submit」 登録・ログインに成功するとこちらのようなホーム画面が表示されます。 「Learn SAS」「Get SAS Certified」「Career Resources」のタブがあり、それぞれe-Learningによる学習、認定資格の案内、キャリア構築のためのリソースが提供されています。 ここでは「ビジュアライゼーション」のe-Learningをご紹介します。SAS Visual AnalyticsというGUI操作による可視化ツールを利用して、データから示唆を得る方法を学習するトレーニングです。数学やプログラミングが苦手な方でも学習できます。 「Learn SAS」タブ→「Start Learning」→「Visual Analytics and Visual Statistics」→「SAS Visual Analytics 1 for SAS
SAS' Kelly Fellingham, an advanced analytics software developer, reveals how SAS software's new SASEBEA interface helps you identify patterns in US economics data.
Active gratitude is the feeling you get when a stranger does something nice for you without expecting anything in return. While both are beneficial for our health, there is a statistically significant, positive correlation between active gratitude and pro-sociality (r = 0.374), that is not present with passive gratitude. In other words, random acts of kindness trigger other random acts of kindness to other people, which is both good for us and good for society.
This post is written in the hopes of easing the SAS Viya deployment process for novices like me. Firstly, deploying SAS Viya, like most enterprise software packages, isn't a skill we're innately born with. We're going to need a little help, some good documentation, and time to absorb the intricoes

[Editor's note: this post was co-authored by Marinela Profi and Wilbram Hazejager] Data science teams are multidisciplinary, each with different skills and technologies of choice. Some of them use SAS, others may have analytical assets already built in Python or R. Let's just say each team is unique. As part
Think about what a modern implementation of SAS looks like for a customer. Programmers rely on robust environments to run the models and programs that answer business questions. These environments can be different for platforms like SAS® 9 and SAS® Viya®. They can be deployed across distributed servers, either on
SAS Analytics Pro consists of three core elements of the SAS system: Base SAS®, SAS/GRAPH® and SAS/STAT®. The containerized deployment option adds the full selection of SAS/ACCESS engines making it even easier to work with data from virtually any source.
From articles I've read on the web, it is clear that data is gold in the twenty-first century. Loading, enriching, manipulating and analyzing data is something in which SAS excels. Based on questions from colleagues and customers, it is clear end-users are willing to display data handled by SAS outside
