Compare diagnostic tests using transformation-invariant smoothed ROC curves().
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, plotting true positive rates against false positive rates as threshold varies, is an important tool for evaluating biomarkers in diagnostic medicine studies. By definition, ROC curve is monotone increasing from 0 to 1 and is invariant to any monotone transformation of test results. And it is often a curve with certain level of smoothness when test ...
متن کاملUsing Roc Curves to Compare Neural Networks and Logistic Regression for Modeling Individual Noncatastrophic Tree Mortality
—The performance of two classifiers, logistic regression and neural networks, are compared for modeling noncatastrophic individual tree mortality for 21 species of trees in West Virginia. The output of the classifier is usually a continuous number between 0 and 1. A threshold is selected between 0 and 1 and all of the trees below the threshold are classified as mortality trees and all of the tr...
متن کاملNovel tests for evaluating two ROC curves under paired samples.
Disease prevention is important and can be accomplished by developing diagnostic tests. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) are used to assess the accuracy of diagnostic tests. The assessment for the superiority between evaluating two diagnostic tests is needed when comparing two diagnostic tests. Existing tests are constructed by comparing t...
متن کاملTesting global memory models using ROC curves.
Global memory models are evaluated by using data from recognition memory experiments. For recognition, each of the models gives a value of familiarity as the output from matching a test item against memory. The experiments provide ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curves that give information about the standard deviations of familiarity values for old and new test items in the models. The...
متن کاملPermutation Tests to Compare Survival Curves for Matched Data
Riassunto: L’obiettivo di questo lavoro è sviluppare un test per il confronto della sopravvivenza tra gruppi di soggetti appaiati in proporzione non fissa. L’appaiamento produce dati stratificati, con strati spesso di dimensione esigua e con forme di dipendenza entro strato difficili da identificare. Si è pertanto esplorato, in questo contesto, l’uso di test di permutazione quale possibile alte...
