Digital channels open the door to synthetic identity fraud. Luckily, artificial (AI, that is) can defeat synthetic.
Cada vez más organizaciones de todo tipo son conscientes de la importancia de la toma de decisiones basada en datos. Este es el caso de ICEX España Exportación e Inversiones, entidad pública que promueve la internacionalización de las empresas españolas y la atracción de la inversión extranjera. A través de
Machine Learning models are becoming widely used to formulate and describe processes’ key metrics across different industry fields. There is also an increasing need for the integration of these Machine Learning (ML) models with other Advanced Analytics methodologies, such as Optimization. Specifically, in the manufacturing industry, SAS explored state-of-the-art science
Contents 변화는 기회를 만든다! 2021년 주요 변화 동인 금융산업 Analytics 고도화를 위한 주요 Trends 변화는 기회를 만든다! 1968년 멕시코 올림픽 이전에 육상 높이뛰기는 ‘엎드려뛰기’나 ‘가위뛰기’가 일반적인 방식이었으며, 200cm 이상을 뛰어야 메달권에 들어갈 수 있었다. 하지만, 1963년 메드퍼드 고등학교 2학년에 재학 중이던 Dick Fosbury는 높이뛰기 선수 테스트에서 160cm를 넘는데 실패하였다. 사실
Linear programming (LP) and mixed integer linear programming (MILP) solvers are powerful tools. Many real-world business problems, including facility location, production planning, job scheduling, and vehicle routing, naturally lead to linear optimization models. Sometimes a model that is not quite linear can be transformed to an equivalent linear model to reduce
A Deep-Q Network (DQN) is a reinforcement learning technique that attempts to model the actions that perform best in each state in real-time.
Chemical companies are sitting on data gold mines waiting to be exploited. Yet most of them struggle to capitalize on the full potential and insights of their data. How can you make advanced analytics work for you and gain competitive advantage? For the past couple of years, chemical companies have
Son varios los análisis que se han hecho en torno al Índice Global de Competitividad Global 4.0, que dio a conocer el Foro Económico Mundial a finales del año anterior y que muestra los avances que en la materia tuvieron los diferentes países en el atípico 2020. Ciertamente es de
Collaboration in the cloud is definitely the next big thing from my perspective for life sciences organisations.
As delinquencies rise in the wake of COVID-19, lenders must harness technology to orchestrate omnichannel contact strategies.
The recently released 2021 Gartner MQ for Data Science and Machine Learning contains a wealth of information and here are my takes on key market trends from that report for data scientists. This evaluation features SAS Viya with its SAS Data Science offerings.
Data scientist has been on the career hot list for years, but how does one become a data scientist? Well, my journey to becoming a data scientist was not an intentional journey - I didn't start with a plan to end up in a data science career. In fact, I
By making requests through API calls you can expand the functionality of the bots you make with SAS Conversation Designer; allowing your bots to query external sources for up-to-date information, score a model, and many other possibilities. This is very beneficial as SAS Conversation Designer is included in many offerings of the modernized SAS Viya platform, meaning you can easily create bots that are integrated with the other services of the SAS Viya platform or third-party services.
Note from Udo Sglavo: In our peace of mind blog series, we documented areas of analytics that are either evolving or not necessarily in the standard toolset of data scientists. We looked at causal modeling, network analytics, and econometrics, to name a few. With this blog post, we would like
SAS stands for more than just installation and customizing. I discuss our #IMPACT view of 2021 with Thorsten Hagenberger.
FDA, 의약품 평가 및 연구 센터 위해 SAS 고급분석 및 AI 기술 도입 미국 식품의약국(FDA)은 SAS® Viya® 플랫폼 내 자연어 처리, 인공지능 및 머신러닝 기능 등을 기반으로 새로운 도약을 위해 SAS와 40년 파트너십을 연장하기로 했습니다. 향후 5 년간 4,990 만 달러(약 560억원)에 달하는 총괄 구매 계약(BPA)을 통해 SAS는 FDA에서 진행중인
Because ministers' hearts beat for new technologies, too, the state of Baden-Württemberg is investing more than 1 billion euros in digitization projects. At least that's the passionate impression Minister Theresia Bauer gives us when we talk to her about new technologies and how she intends to use them for Baden-Württemberg.
If the digital trust felt by citizens has contributed to the success of many test and trace programmes, the upcoming AI legislation will likely help entrench this trend in the realm of AI.
Lo vivido en el último tiempo ha significado tiempos de incertidumbre para muchos y unos de ellos son los profesionales de marketing en las empresas. No era para menos: los comportamientos de los clientes (B2C y también B2B) cambiaron abruptamente: valores, lugares, canales, frecuencias… todo lo que conocíamos anteriormente y
Organisations also need to ensure diversity when developing assets—those diverse teams that I mentioned before.
¿Qué importancia tiene considerar la diversidad y la inclusión cuando lanzamos una iniciativa de Analítica? Es decir, ¿qué tan importante es la diversidad y la inclusión para la sociedad? Los estatutos de derechos humanos establecen que: "Todos los individuos son iguales ante la ley y tienen derecho a la misma
Note from Udo Sglavo on mathematical optimization: When data scientists look at the essence of analytics and wonder about their daily endeavor, it often comes down to supporting better decisions. Peter F. Drucker, the founder of modern management, stated: "Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision."
It's been a great ride Since 2014, the Operations Research Blog has covered a broad range of topics related to real applications of operations research. Paraphrasing Principal Product Manager for Optimization Ed Hughes' first post - this blog covered how OR methods could be applied to organizational and business planning
"With #HackinSAS, we want to build on the best of many young ideas into innovative products on one platform."
„Wir wollen mit #HackinSAS aus vielen jungen Ideen die besten auf einer Plattform zu innovativen Produkten weiterbauen.“
A note from Udo Sglavo: When people ask me what makes SAS unique in the area of analytics, I will mention the breadth of our analytic portfolio at some stage. In this blog series, we looked at several essential components of our analytical ecosystem already. It is about time to
1. はじめに 前回投稿しました「SAS/ACCESSのご紹介とSnowflakeとの連携デモ」はご覧になったでしょうか。SASと外部のデータストレージサービスを連携する「SAS/ACCESS」のご紹介と、実際に「Snowflake」というサービスに連携してみました。今回は、その続きとして、10年以上前からビッグデータ・アナリティクスの基本アーキテクチャである、In-Database機能の代表的な機能である、SQLパススルーという機能をご説明し、デモを準備しました。 2. SQLパススルーについて SAS/ACCESS がインストールされている場合、SQLパススルーを使用してデータストレージサービスにクエリできます。接続方法に応じてSQLパススルーは、「暗黙的パススルー」と「明示的パススルー」に分けることができます。 暗黙的パススルーの価値は、作成したSASコードが自動的にデータストレージサービスが処理できるSQLに変換され、そのSQLをデータストレージサービス側に与えることにあります。ですので、SASで実行されたSQLやSASプロシジャに指定されたWHERE句など、可能な限りデータストレージサービス側で処理を行い、結果だけをSAS側に転送することが可能です。一方、明示的パススルーの場合には、DB依存のSQLを明示的に記述することできます。暗黙的パススルーと明示的パススルーについてまとめた表を下に記載していますので、ご覧ください。今回は、暗黙的パススルーについて詳しくご紹介したいと思います。 ▲SAS CommunityでSQL Pass throughについて質問するユーザー 暗黙的パススルーを使用する方が良いか、明示的パススルーを使用するのが良いのか気になるかと思います。実はこのトピックは、SAS Communityでもよく見られ、SAS/ ACCESSを使用している全世界のユーザーにとっても気になる質問です。どちらを使用するかは、どこに基準を置くか、また、SASとデータストレージサービスの環境のスペックによって異なると思います。ですので、皆さんもこのような疑問が生じた場合は、SASに相談してみてはいかがでしょうか。 3. 暗黙的パススルーのデモ 3-1. データの紹介とデモの概要 今回のデモのために、「pets」と「owners」という名前で2つのテーブルをデータストレージサービス(今回は、Snowflake)側に事前に保存しておきました。 「pets」テーブルには、3つのカラムがあります。 Id: ペット固有のid Name: ペットの名前 Type: ペットの種類(犬、猫、その他) Id Name Type 1 オオビ 犬 2 ローザ 猫 3 ワンチャン その他 … … … もう1つのテーブル「owners」にも3つのカラムがあります。 Id: オーナー固有のid Name: オーナーの名前
What if you had a technology solution that creates a real-time link between the customer demand signal and what's happening on the ground? What if plans that are being steered centrally could finally be connected to every shipping lane, while simultaneously, creating cost saving carrier adjustments? The first-of-its kind integration
Herkes için analitik Analitik platformlarının gelişmesiyle beraber veri analizi ve ileri analitik tekniklerini kullanmak için kod yazma ihtiyacının azaldığını görüyoruz. İleri analitik tekniklerinin yolculuğu, algoritmaları programlama zorunluluğuyla başladı. Bu yolculuk, kütüphaneleştirilen algoritmalarla devam etti ve sadece bu kütüphanelerdeki fonksiyonları kullanarak algoritmaları kendimizin yazma ihtiyacının ortadan kalktığı bir yolda ilerledi. Şu
