Winning a One Day International (ODI) cricket match depends on various factors related to scoring as well as the athletic strengths of the two teams. While some of these factors have been well analyzed in the literature, others have yet to be investigated. In this analysis, statistical significance for a range of variables that could explain the outcome of an ODI cricket match is explored. In p...

The justification for making a measurement can be sought in asking what decisions are based on measurement, such as assessing the compliance of quality characteristic an entity relation to specification limit, SL. relative performance testing devices and classification algorithms used is often evaluated using venerable ever popular receiver operating (ROC). However, ROC tool has potentially all...

RATIONAL AND OBJECTIVES It is common to administer the same diagnostic test more than once to the same set of patients. The purpose of this study was to develop two statistical methods for estimating and comparing correlated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for data derived from repeated diagnostic tests. MATERIAL AND METHODS Parametric and semiparametric transformation models w...

A well established technique to improve the classification performances is to combine more classifiers. However, the possible combination rules proposed up to now generally try to decrease the classification error rate, which is a performance measure not suitable in many real situations and particularly when dealing with two class problems. In this case, an effective instrument to analyze the d...

Assessing the discriminative power of rating systems is an important question to banks and to regulators. In this article we analyze the Cumulative Accuracy Profile (CAP) and the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) which are both commonly used in practice. We give a test-theoretic interpretation for the concavity of the CAP and the ROC curve and demonstrate how this observation can be used ...
