Regression Analysis for the Partial Area under the Roc Curve
Performance evaluation of any classification method is fundamental to its acceptance in practice. Evaluation should consider the dependence of a classifier’s accuracy on relevant covariates in addition to its overall accuracy. When developing a classifier with a continuous output that allocates units into one of two groups, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis is appropriate. ...
متن کاملOptimizing Area Under Roc Curve with SVMs
For many years now, there is a growing interest around ROC curve for characterizing machine learning performances. This is particularly due to the fact that in real-world problems misclassification costs are not known and thus, ROC curve and related metrics such as the Area Under ROC curve (AUC) can be a more meaningful performance measures. In this paper, we propose a quadratic programming bas...
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 کاملGeneralization Bounds for the Area Under an ROC Curve
We study generalization properties of the area under an ROC curve (AUC), a quantity that has been advocated as an evaluation criterion for bipartite ranking problems. The AUC is a different and more complex term than the error rate used for evaluation in classification problems; consequently, existing generalization bounds for the classification error rate cannot be used to draw conclusions abo...
