Scoring Code Files

Use this feature to specify one or more scoring code files.

Scoring code files, delineated by the appended _score.sas suffix, are SAS program files that contain models that use measured attributes to either characterize or predict the value of an event. These models are developed on historical data where an event has been measured or inferred and are generated using one or more predictive modeling processes, such as Ridge Regression, for example. The predictive models are then applied to new data for which the attributes are known, but the event has not yet occurred. The scoring code file must contain only scores for marker variables and an intercept (optional).

To Specify the SAS Scoring Code Files:

8 Specify the Folder Containing Scoring Code Files.

All of the SAS scoring code files in the specified folder are displayed in the Available Files field.

8 Examine the list of available files.
8 Highlight the scoring file to be included in the analysis. To highlight multiple files at once, hold down while left-clicking on them.
