Multiple Comparisons with the Best ROC Curve

The accuracy of a medical diagnostic tool depends on its specificity, the probability that it classifies a normal person as normal, and its sensitivity, the probability that it classifies a diseased person as diseased. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of such a tool is its sensitivity plotted against (1 specificity) as the threshold defining “normal” versus “diseased” ranges ov...

determinant of the hankel matrix with binomial entries

abstract in this thesis at first we comput the determinant of hankel matrix with enteries a_k (x)=?_(m=0)^k??((2k+2-m)¦(k-m)) x^m ? by using a new operator, ? and by writing and solving differential equation of order two at points x=2 and x=-2 . also we show that this determinant under k-binomial transformation is invariant.

Multiple Comparisons with the Best: Bayesian Precision Measures of Efficiency Rankings*

A large literature measures the allocative and technical efficiency of a set of firms using econometric techniques to estimate stochastic production frontiers or distance functions. Typically, researchers compute only the precision of individual efficiency rankings. Recently, Horrace and Schmidt (2000) have applied sampling theoretic statistical techniques known as multiple comparisons with a c...
