Consider other goodness of fit statistics.  Data scientist often prefer statistics like the misclassification rate, when it comes to predictive models. Finally, reconsider your decision thresholds, both in the evaluation of models - and in choosing the cutoff points.  The same model can produce DRASTICALLY different suggestions based upon those two items... and is a primary example of why the data scientist is still a critical part of the equation.

Thank you so much. As I am very new to SAS... a few things are confusing for me right now. My first experience is on SAS Viya only. learning model studio for Hackathon. very happy for the resources shared by you. Thanks, Sir. ... View more
