SAS Tools
The toolset available for the competition is composed by 4 main modules which are part of the SAS Viya Platform
SAS® Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning
Visual Data Mining & Machine Learning is the ultimate Enterprise Analytics Platform. Thanks to its visual interactive interfaces, it accelerates the comprehension of data & phenomena so as to extract useful business insights easily and quickly. Plus, it is a multi-purpose platform (creativity is the only limit) and has an open architecture.
SAS® Visual Analytics
Explore, represent and analyze your data thanks to one simple and intuitive visual interface. This is the tool that allows to interactively and maturely explore data and quickly understand patterns and trends. This component might be the key for accelerating data comprehension prior to any subsequent modeling stage.
SAS® Visual Statistics
Statistics made simple with SAS. This is the interface capable to quickly and interactively prototype statistical models. Thanks to this interface, business users get the chance to quickly get analytical feedback from data, such as: which is the best model that fits to data? Which are the regressors to be included? Etc...
SAS Studio
The place to easily develop SAS code. This is the interface for advanced users (SAS Programmers) that likes programming and would want to go through it in order to achieve all the tasks on hand.
