Descriptive and predictive modeling
Visually explore and evaluate segments for further analysis using k-means clustering, scatter plots and detailed summary statistics. Use machine learning techniques to build predictive models from a visual or programming interface.
Open, code-based model development
Programmatically access analytical actions from SAS Studio, call them from other languages – Python, R, Lua, Java – or use public REST APIs to add SAS Analytics to existing applications.
Dynamic group-by processing
Concurrently build models and process results for each group or segment without having to sort or index data each time.
Model comparison, assessment and scoring
Generate model comparison summaries (lift charts, ROC charts, concordance statistics, misclassification tables) on one or more models. Export models as SAS DATA step code, and apply them to new data.
Distributed, in-memory analytical processing
Uses in-memory analytical processing to provide answers to a range of business questions in a single, scalable and governed environment.
Flexible deployment options
Runs on commodity hardware, in a private or public cloud infrastructure, Cloud Foundry platform as a service (PaaS) or managed software as a service (SaaS).
Your data scientists and statisticians can act on observations at a granular level using the most appropriate analytical modeling techniques. The result? You'll unearth insights at unprecedented speeds, and find new ways to grow revenue.
Easily build and refine models to target specific groups or segments, and run numerous scenarios simultaneously. You can ask more what-if questions to get better results. And put results into action with automatically generated score code.
Empower multiple users to interact with data visually – to add or change variables, remove outliers, etc. Instantly see how changes affect your model's predictive power, and make refinements quickly.
Data science teams have the ultimate flexibility of working in their language of choice, so they can use their skills to the fullest. SAS Visual Statistics unites all analytical assets – whether created using SAS or other languages like R, Python, Java or Lua – within a common solution.
