score data set in sas vfl

[azaras]

Hello,

I want to score a table using the astore code derived from SAS Visual TA in SAS VFL. What shuld i put in the following paramters (let cas_server_port, cas_server_hostname)?

Thanks,

Andreas

%let cas_server_hostname = "localhost";

%let cas_server_port = 5570;

Hello,

I guess :

• SAS Visual TA = SAS Visual Text Analytics
• SAS VFL = SAS Viya for Learners

So, I moved this topic to "Data Science"-board (more appropriate board for this question).
I suppose "Model Studio" (for VTA) was used here, and not "Visual Analytics".

You are correct. Thanks!

I use the code at the end of the post.

I receive the following error:

Any hints on how to score?

Hi,

I read the instructions. I had forgotten to upload the astore table in cas.

I did it with the following proc:

%let local_astore_file_path = "/shared/home/azaras@aueb.gr/casuser";
%let input_astore_caslib_name = "casuser";

%let input_astore_name = "astore_2";

%let input_astore_name_unquoted = %qsysfunc(dequote(&input_astore_name))

proc astore;
upload rstore=public.&input_astore_name_unquoted
store=&local_astore_file_path;
quit;

The astore_2 is created in public. When i try to open it in the data grid i get the following:

I continue with the action astore score but since the uploaded into cas astore table has a problem there the code cannot run.

Any ideas what is the problem?

Thanks in advance,

Andreas

Hello,

How do you know there's a problem with the uploaded-into-CAS ASTORE?

That ASTORE is a binary analytic store. You cannot visualize it with the table viewer.

What happens when you try to use that ASTORE for scoring?

Hi Koen,

Thanks for your answer.

When i try to score with the created astore cas table i receive the following error:

ERROR: Store contents have been modified. Cannot continue.

ERROR: Action score failed.

ERROR: The action stopped due to errors.

Any ideas?

proc cas;

123 session mysess;

126 action astore.score;

127 param

128 table={caslib=&input_caslib_name, name=&input_table_name}

129 rstore={caslib=&input_astore_caslib_name, name=&input_astore_name}

130 out={caslib=&output_caslib_name, name=&output_table_name, replace=TRUE}

131 copyVars={&copy_vars_variables};

132 ;

133 run;

Hello,

Can you try something like this?

For Scoring new data from SAS Studio using score files (DS2 code and an ASTORE binary file) from VTA pipelines :

Q: How can we score new data in SAS Studio using EP code files downloaded from Model Studio?

**ANSWER**

If you downloaded the ASTORE (.sasast) then you need to upload it to CAS to use in scoring. The epcode is used if you have preprocessing code in your flow. If the ASTORE file is already loaded to CAS, you do not need to upload it again.

proc astore;
   upload rstore=mycaslib._astore_wine
   store="~/aBc/xYz/Demo/_36AAV34SH5MWA1ASPCRW1AYAD.sasast"; 
/* the astore that you downloaded from Model Studio */
   score data=mycaslib.winequality_jw out=mycaslib._scored_wine3
   rstore=mycaslib._astore_wine
   epcode="~/aBc/xYz/Demo/dmcas_epscorecode.sas"; 
/* the epcode that was downloaded from Model Studio */
run; QUIT;

Hi koen,
Thanks for your answer.
When I download the code from visual text analytics Viya for learners- topics node - I get two files astorescorecode.sas and topicsmodel.astore. I don't get any ep file.
Any idea?

Hello @smanoj ,

Hello @themaryosborne ,

Hello @RussAlbright ,

Can you help?
I can probably sort it out by setting up a VTA-pipeline myself, but I have no time for that right now.

Thanks,

Koen

Hi @azaras   and @sbxkoenk ,
I don't think you need epcode in this environment. You can just run the AstoreScoreCode.sas after setting some of the macro variables. Directions are in the file itself.  Can you give that a try, @azaras ? Thanks
Russ

Thnaks Russ and all the friends that contributed to my question. 

You were right, i checked carefully the code that is downloaded from the SAS Visual Text Analytics and i can score a new data set by filling in the macro variables. Actually the scored data set is saved in a cas library called sascas1 that is created by the code, although i set the library to casuser. This is why i could not find the scored data set and i initiated the post. So if someone else tries this action the scored data set can be found in the sascas1 cas library.

/* specifies the CAS library to write the score output table. You must modify the value to provide the name of the library that will contain the output table that the score code produces. */
%let output_caslib_name = "casuser";

cas sascas1 host=&cas_server_hostname port=&cas_server_port;
libname sascas1 cas sessref=sascas1 datalimit=all;

Thanks!
