Boosting the Area under the ROC Curve
We show that any weak ranker that can achieve an area under the ROC curve slightly better than 1/2 (which can be achieved by random guessing) can be efficiently boosted to achieve an area under the ROC curve arbitrarily close to 1. We further show that this boosting can be performed even in the presence of independent misclassification noise, given access to a noise-tolerant weak ranker.
متن کاملComparing the growth of under 2 years old children referring to health centers of Bandar Abbas with NCHS standard curve
Introduction: Assessing the growth and development of children is an important parameter in ‎their health assessment. Since the growth effecting agents vary in countries, it is not sensible ‎considering a unique growth chart for all.‎ Objective: In this research we have studied the growth chart of children under ‎‏2‏‎ years old in ‎BandarAbbas and compared it ...
متن کاملArea under the curve as a measure of discounting.
We describe a novel approach to the measurement of discounting based on calculating the area under the empirical discounting function. This approach avoids some of the problems associated with measures based on estimates of the parameters of theoretical discounting functions. The area measure may be easily calculated for both individual and group data collected using any of a variety of current...
متن کاملNormal Approximation under Local Dependence
By Louis H.Y. Chen † and Qi-Man Shao ‡ National University of Singapore and University of Oregon §¶ We establish both uniform and non-uniform error bounds of the Berry-Esseen type in normal approximation under local dependence. These results are of an order close to the best possible if not best possible. They are more general or sharper than many existing ones in the literature. The proofs cou...
متن کاملSAS Macro for Estimating the Standard Error of Area Under the Curve with an Application to Receiver Operating Curves
We propose a novel SAS macro to utilize PROC NLMIXED in SAS to estimate the standard error for AUC when the AUC estimator is based on the trapezoidal rule. Our method accounts for the trapezoidal region-by-region correlation structure. An example is provided for the standard error of the AUC under the ROC curve.
