ROC Curve
It would be nice for both the woman and family and the attending obstetrician to anticipate a cesarean delivery on the basis of patient characteristics. The traditional method is to compute Bishop score based on dilatation, effacement, consistency and position. Other parameters that influence the success of induction of labor are maternal age, parity, BMI and amniotic fluid index. A study was c...
متن کاملOn Bootstrapping the ROC Curve
This paper is devoted to thoroughly investigating how to bootstrap the ROC curve, a widely used visual tool for evaluating the accuracy of test/scoring statistics in the bipartite setup. The issue of confidence bands for the ROC curve is considered and a resampling procedure based on a smooth version of the empirical distribution called the ”smoothed bootstrap” is introduced. Theoretical argume...
متن کاملBending the Curve: Improving the ROC Curve Through Error Redistribution
Classification performance is often not uniform over the data. Some areas in the input space are easier to classify than others. Features that hold information about the ”difficulty” of the data may be nondiscriminative and are therefore disregarded in the classification process. We propose a meta-learning approach where performance may be improved by post-processing. This improvement is done b...
متن کاملBoosting 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 کاملRoc Curve Estimation: an Overview
• This work overviews some developments on the estimation of the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. Estimation methods in this area are constantly being developed, adjusted and extended, and it is thus impossible to cover all topics and areas of application in a single paper. Here, we focus on some frequentist and Bayesian methods which have been mostly employed in the medical setti...
