Forecasting


SAS VISUAL FORECASTING SOFTWARE


GENERATE LARGE NUMBERS OF TRUSTWORTHY FORECASTS, QUICKLY AND AUTOMATICALLY,
USING TIME SERIES AND MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES.


Try SAS Viya for Free




PLAN BETTER FOR THE FUTURE WITH A FAST, CONFIGURABLE, OPEN AND FUTURE-PROOF
FORECASTING TOOL THAT YOU CAN TRUST.




STREAMLINE AND AUTOMATE YOUR FORECASTING PROCESS.

Automatically generate, visualize and deploy reliable forecasts at scale –
without human involvement. Reduced manual intervention means there's less chance
of introducing personal bias in the forecasting process. Because forecast
analysts don't have to build and monitor forecasting models for every time
series, they can focus on more strategic, high-value forecasts or problems that
aren't suitable for automation. At the same time, more experienced forecasters
can develop and share the modeling strategies and pipelines they configured for
use by other areas of the business.





PRODUCE ACCURATE FORECASTS AT SCALE FOR BETTER PLANNING.

Automatically partition data into segments of similar time series based on the
nature of the data. Then apply the most effective modeling technique to each
group using time series, machine learning and hybrid techniques.






EMPOWER OPEN SOURCE USERS.

Provide data science teams the option of scaling popular open source algorithms
in Python and R by distributing them to run in parallel in the cloud. SAS Visual
Forecasting provides an open and extensible framework that integrates and
parallelizes algorithms, making them shareable and reusable in a governed and
consistent way.





INCORPORATE EXTERNAL DRIVERS AND BUSINESS KNOWLEDGE.

Business drivers, holidays or events that affect the forecasting process are
selected automatically from variables supplied to the system. Using a simple
user interface, you can also override the system’s results based on actual
business knowledge to further improve forecasting accuracy. Manage changes based
on specific filters you define as part of the same ecosystem.

KEY FEATURES

SAS Visual Forecasting provides an open forecasting ecosystem for quickly and
automatically producing a large number of reliable forecasts.

View detailed features list



DATA ACCESS, PREPARATION & QUALITY

Access, profile, cleanse and transform data using an intuitive interface that
provides self-service data preparation capabilities with embedded AI.


DATA VISUALIZATION

Visually explore data and create and share smart visualizations and interactive
reports through a single, self-service interface. Augmented analytics and
advanced capabilities accelerate insights and help you uncover stories hidden in
your data .


AUTOMATIC TIME SERIES ANALYSIS & FORECASTING

Several function packages perform specific tasks in the time series analysis
process. Convert time-stamped transactional data into a time series format, then
generate forecast models automatically.


MACHINE LEARNING & DEEP LEARNING

Incorporate neural networks (NNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and hybrid
techniques (NNs + time series) in the forecasting process to model even the most
challenging series. Generate features and automatically transform transactional
data into the right format to eliminate manual, labor-intensive feature
engineering prior to using these sophisticated techniques.




PARALLELIZE OPEN SOURCE ALGORITHMS

Integrate and parallelize Python and R algorithms to run in the cloud using a
well-governed and consistent framework. Empower open source users to scale their
code to run in lightning speed in a distributed way using SAS Viya’s worker
nodes in the cloud .


TIME-SERIES SEGMENTATION

Automatically segment data based on demand-classification attributes, such as
volume and volatility, using a prebuilt template and model each segment
separately in the project pipelines. Or import custom segments based on your
business knowledge. Apply the most appropriate forecasting technique based on
the nature of the data and significantly improve the quality of your forecasts.


ADD EVENTS TO MODELS

Model the effect of events (holidays, retail promotions, natural disasters,
etc.) on dependent time series to improve model accuracy. The solution includes
default prebuilt events (e.g., major holidays), and you can add others from an
external event repository.


INTERACTIVE MODELING

Analyze individual time series, compare models visually and develop custom
models for individual time series via a simple user interface. Assess and
evaluate models with automatically generated diagnostic plots and tables, and
select your own model champions.




HIGHLY FLEXIBLE FORECAST OVERRIDE

Make customized adjustments to specific filters or groups of time series defined
by attributes, not just by hierarchical variables, using a powerful manual
override capability via a simple user interface.


HIERARCHICAL RECONCILIATION

Model and forecast each series in a hierarchy individually, then reconcile
top-down at multiple levels. Adjust a forecast at any level, and apportion it to
lower levels to keep the hierarchy consistent. Individual forecasts (by
products, locations, etc.) roll up to the top number.


ADDITIONAL FORECASTING & ECONOMETRICS PROCEDURES

Address virtually any forecasting and time series analysis challenge with access
to SAS/ETS® and SAS Forecast Server procedures.


SUPPORT FOR APIS & OTHER PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

Use the broad range of built-in forecasting models, and/or customize models that
work well with your data. Use public REST APIs to add SAS Analytics to other
applications. Call analytical actions, procedures and APIs from SAS, Python, R,
Java and Lua.




SCRIPTING LANGUAGE FOR DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING

A scripting environment supports fast, in-memory time series analysis. The
scripting language is optimized and compiled for the machine it's running on –
no need to rewrite code for different machines.


CLOUD NATIVE

SAS Viya's architecture is compact, cloud native and fast. Whether you prefer to
use the SAS Cloud or a public or private cloud provider, you'll be able to make
the most of your cloud investment.
