Access Machine Learning model from SAS Studio

[u63165021]

I have SAS Studio for Academia. I want to try out machine learning models. How do I access it from SAS studio?

Hi @u63165021 

If you want to build ML models in SAS Studio you have a few ways to do this.

1. Use procedures (such as PROC GRADBOOST for GBMs)
2. Use CAS Actions called via PROC CAS (this uses actions within action sets similar to object oriented approaches, eg. decisionTree.gbtreeTrain)
3. Use the 'programming tasks' wizards to generate the code via point and click

Hope this helps

Assuming you are currently on the SAS Ondemand for Academics platform,  you will need to switch to Viya for Learners platform.  This is a free software platform for students & educators - it requires that you register with an email address associated with a University (ex. .edu email).

Couple of good YouTube videos that should help:
