background : determining the validity of current median sensory nerve conduction techniques for diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (cts). methods: eighty five patients with clinical diagnosis of cts were compared with the same number of healthy people. the validity of electrodiagnostic tests were compared in a case-control manner. these electrodiagnostictechniques included long-segment, short-...

Abstract Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and area under the ROC (AUC) are commonly used performance measures in diagnostic systems. In this work, we assume a setting, where classifier is inferred from multivariate data to predict outcome for new cases. Cross-validation resampling method estimating prediction of on not inferring it. Tournament leave-pair-out (TLPO) cross-v...

this review provides the basic principle and rational for roc analysis of rating and continuous diagnostic test results versus a gold standard. derived indexes of accuracy, in particular area under the curve (auc) has a meaningful interpretation for disease classification from healthy subjects. the methods of estimate of auc and its testing in single diagnostic test and also comparative studies...
