AUC 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 کاملA note on the scaling limits of random Pólya trees
Panagiotou and Stufler (arXiv:1502.07180v2) recently proved one important fact on their way to establish the scaling limits of random Pólya trees: a uniform random Pólya tree of size n consists of a conditioned critical Galton-Watson tree Tn and many small forests, where with probability tending to one as n tends to infinity, each forest Fn(v) is maximally of size |Fn(v)| = O(log n). Their proo...

متن کاملThe Two Sample Problem with Censored Data
A medical investigator attempting to compare two different treatments for, say, prolongation of life among disease victims, often finds himself in the following situation: at time T, when it is necessary to end the experiment, or at least evaluate the results up to that time, a certain number of the patients in each treatment group will still be alive. His data will then be represented by two s...
متن کاملThe Extended Two - Sample Problem : Nonparametric Case
The classical two-sample problem is extended here to the case where the distribution functions of the observable random variables are specified functions of unknown distribution functions and the null hypothesis to be tested or the parameter to be estimated relates to these unknown distributions. Various properties of the proposed rank tests and derived estimates are studied.
