StatCore captures Bronze Medal in 2011 SAS Analytics Data Mining Shootout

Over 40 teams entered the 2011 SAS Analytics Data Mining Shootout, an analytics competition open to any accredited college or university in the United States. Participants were given a hypothetical, but common business problem to solve and assessed on the accuracy of their predictions and quality of written report. As a distance learning student of Oklahoma State University, I teamed up with classmate Michael Faron from Austin, Texas and entered the competition. We were selected as finalists- ultimately winning a bronze medal, a cash prize for our university and an all-expenses paid trip to speak at the 2011 SAS Global Analytics Conference in Orlando, Florida. Read the winning report here.
