HIMYM -- How I made your model with SAS Viya

[#1]

HIMYM …  New York? Legendary? And also: SAS Viya and SAS Visual Analytics in Action!

"How I made your model with SAS Viya". This is my new webinar series featuring model building in SAS Viya.

Here you will learn how easy it is to build predictive models, segmentations, and cluster analyses using No-Code/Low-Code environments and SAS coding.

The series not only focuses on the building of supervised und unsupervised machine learning models but also on the profiling of customer data, the handling of data quality aspects like missing values in the analysis data, the interpretation of complex machine learning models, the profiling of segments and clusters as well as the export of the results for further usage in operation.

"Season 1: The NoCode/LowCode Experience" has just been released and is available now in my Youtube Channel. 21 episodes are waiting for you to show that insights into your data, your first predictive model, segmentation or cluster analyses are just a few mouse clicks away.

The target audience of this webinar are

1. Business users who would like to see how they can touch data and bring in their business expertise into the analysis process,
2. SAS Data Scientists who would like to demonstrate to their peers how easy it is to build models in SAS Viya
3. My students at University of Steyr, University of Burgenland and University of Krems

Future seasons like the “Season 2 - The SAS Programming Experience” and “Season 3 - The ML-Pipeline Experience” are currently in planning stage.

Season 1 - The NoCode/LowCode experience

In this season you will see how you can use SAS Visual Analytics to build analytical models and to perform descriptive analyses. You will learn how you can use  graphical, statistical and machine learning objects that automatically create the analysis for you. You see how you can parameterize the objects to receive correct results that can be presented to your business audience.

Check here for the full list of videos in Season 1.
