We all know there's the demand for data science skills continues to grow at exponential rates. And seemingly our available time to learn seems to decrease. But sometimes all you need is to learn a quick tip or trick to solve the task at hand, or only have time to dedicate short increments of time to learn a new skill. Regardless of the scenario, you can tune in to the SAS Users YouTube channel where several SAS Tutorials are posted each month. You'll hear from a variety of experts on different topics for various skill levels.

In this SAS How To Tutorial, Christa Cody provides an introduction to logistic regression and looks at how to perform logistic regression in SAS. After a brief introduction, she will show how to do some basic procedures to your data and fitting the model in SAS Studio. Finally, Christa will demo how to do similar tasks using SAS Model Studio.

In this SAS How To Tutorial, Jeff Thompson shows how to compare models in SAS. When working to solve business problems, analysts and data scientist often build many models. These models are likely based on different algorithms such as trees and tree-based models, neural networks, and even traditional regression models. But how do they know which model is best? That is where model comparison comes in and Jeff will step through how to perform that in SAS using Model Studio. He then runs through the different types of predictions you may be trying to make and which numeric statistics are appropriate for each prediction type.

In this SAS How To Tutorial, Cat Truxillo shows you how to train forest models in SAS. There are multiple ways to train forest models. Cat will show you how to train a forest using two different point-and-click methods. The first method uses SAS Visual Analytics while in the second example, Cat trains a forest in Model Studio, using SAS Viya. Before diving into the examples of how to create a forest model, Cat explains random forest and answers the question "what are random forests?".
