This course focuses on linear, nonlinear, and mixed integer linear optimization concepts in SAS Viya. Students learn how to formulate optimization problems and how to make their formulations efficient by using index sets and arrays. The demonstrations in the course include examples of diet formulation and portfolio optimization. Learn the OPTMODEL procedure and open source tools to formulate and solve optimization problems.
Aprenderá a
- Identify and formulate appropriate approaches to solving various linear, mixed integer linear, and nonlinear optimization problems.
- Create optimization models commonly used in industry.
- Solve optimization problems using the OPTMODEL procedure in SAS.
