Complete SAS Programming Guide - Learn SAS and Become a Data Ninja - Subset Selection

The video tutorial explores stepwise regression, an automatic method for selecting significant variables in a dataset. It covers the standard stepwise method, forward selection, and backward elimination, explaining how each approach optimizes prediction power by minimizing predictor variables. The tutorial includes a coding demonstration for implementing these methods and analyzing the output, highlighting significant variables like credit history and property type. It also emphasizes incorporating insights from past analyses, such as cross-tab and clustering, to refine the model.
