About this Subscription



About 90% of all data is unstructured. And it’s growing fast. This learning subscription is designed for statisticians, business analysts, marketing analysts, and researchers who incorporate free-format textual data in their analyses and students of data mining who want to learn about text analytics and text mining. Whether you are using the latest technology at SAS, SAS Visual Text Analytic on the SAS Viya platform or SAS Text Miner available for SAS Enterprise Miner, we have you covered.

Learn how to:
  • Describe and create the data structure needed for text analytics.
  • Perform text analytics to analyze large, human-generated unstructured text.
  • Discover trends and opportunities to unlock value in your text data.
  • Build models using deep learning techniques.
  • Use deep learning models to solve problems that include traditional classification, image classification, and sequence-dependent outcomes.

      SAS Visual Text Analytics enables you to uncover insights hidden within unstructured data using the combined power of natural language processing, machine learning, and linguistic rules. This course explores the five components of Visual Text Analytics: parsing, concept derivation, topic derivation, text categorization, and sentiment analysis. Documents are parsed and analyzed to reveal dominant themes in the document collection. Sophisticated linguistic queries are constructed to satisfy specific information needs. An integrated solution is developed using information extracted from subject matter expert rules, combined with machine learning results for model and rule-based topics and categories. The course includes hands-on use of SAS Viya in a distributed computing environment.
