Applied Analytics Using Enterprise Miner5
Applied Analytics Using Enterprise Miner5
This course covers the skills required to assemble analysis flow diagrams using the rich tool set of SAS Enterprise Miner for both pattern discovery (segmentation, association, and sequence analyses) and predictive modeling (decision tree, regression, and neural network models). Learn how to define a SAS Enterprise Miner 5 project and explore data graphically modify data for better analysis results build and understand predictive models like decision trees and regression models compare and explain complex models generate and use score code apply association and sequence discovery to transaction data use other modeling tools like rule induction, gradiant boosting, and support vector machines.
Who should attend: Data analysts, qualitative experts, and others who want an introduction to SAS Enterprise Miner Prerequisites Before attending this course, you should be acquainted with Microsoft Windows and Windowsbased software. In addition, you should have at least an introductory-level familiarity with basic statistics and regression modeling. Previous SAS software experience is helpful but not necessary. Course Contents Introduction touring SAS Enterprise Miner 5.3 placing SAS Enterprise Miner in the analysis workflow application examples and case studies pattern discovery and predictive modeling Accessing and Assaying Prepared Data defining a SAS Enterprise Miner 5.3 project defining a data source validating source data Introduction to Predictive Modeling with Decision Trees defining a modeling data source partitioning data for model development growing a decision tree with the Desktop Tree Application running the Decision Tree node using Decision Tree node options
understanding predictive modeling results data Introduction to Predictive Modeling with Regressions comparing linear and logistic regression using the Regression node imputing missing values with the Impute node replacing data values with the Replacement node performing input selection understanding regression modeling output extending regression models with polynomial and interaction terms Introduction to Predictive Modeling with Neural Networks and Other Modeling Tools introduction to neural network (multilayer perceptron) models using the Neural Network node performing model selection with the AutoNeural node (self-study) other SAS Enterprise Miner 5.3 modeling tools (self-study) Model Assessment defining a prior vector effects of prior vectors on model development changing model selection criteria defining a profit matrix comparing models with the Model Comparison node introduction to model assessment statistics Model Implementation defining a Score data set scoring a data set with the Score node using a SAS Code node to export scored data generating and using score code Introduction to Pattern Discovery clustering and segmenting data using the Transform Variables node using the Clustering node for k-means cluster analysis applying association and sequence discovery (self-study) using the Associations node in a consumer banking example (self-study) quantifying the associations among items (self-study) exploring sequences among items (self-study) Special Topics (Self-Study) reducing irrelevancy reducing redundancy combining models with the Ensemble node consolidating categorical inputs with the Decision Tree node explaining complex models with the Decision Tree node
