PAC-Bayesian AUC classification and scoring
We develop a scoring and classification procedure based on the PAC-Bayesian approach and the AUC (Area Under Curve) criterion. We focus initially on the class of linear score functions. We derive PAC-Bayesian non-asymptotic bounds for two types of prior for the score parameters: a Gaussian prior, and a spike-and-slab prior; the latter makes it possible to perform feature selection. One importan...

متن کاملAUC optimization and the two-sample problem
The purpose of the paper is to explore the connection between multivariate homogeneity tests and AUC optimization. The latter problem has recently received much attention in the statistical learning literature. From the elementary observation that, in the two-sample problem setup, the null assumption corresponds to the situation where the area under the optimal ROC curve is equal to 1/2, we pro...
متن کاملAUC Maximization in Bayesian Hierarchical Models
Abstract. The area under the curve (AUC) measures such as the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC) and the area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR) are known to be more appropriate than the error rate, especially, for imbalanced data sets. There are several algorithms to optimize AUC measures instead of minimizing the error rate. However, this idea has not been fu...
متن کاملMaximization of AUC and Buffered AUC in Classification
This paper utilizes a new concept, called Buffered Probability of Exceedance (bPOE), to introduce an alternative to the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) performance metric called Buffered AUC (bAUC). Central to the creation of bAUC is a new technique for calculation and optimization of bPOE. We show this formula to be easily integrable into optimization frameworks, o...
