Calculate Az (A sub z) with R?
I am looking for (or interested in writing) a function that calculates Az, an alternative measure of discriminability from SDT (alternative to d', Az). I have written my own functions for d', A', B"d, and am aware of the 'sdtalt' package, but I have yet to find a way to calculate Az, since it require the phi operator. For a relevant paper/discussion (and formula), please see Verde and McMillian, 2006 (Measures of sensitivity based on a single hit rate and false alarm rate: The accuracy, precision, and robustness of d&...

R for Computational Neuroscience?
Hi all, I've noticed that many computational neuroscience research groups use MATLAB. While it's possible that MATLAB may have some features unavailable in R, I suspect that this may instead simply be a case of costly tradition, where researchers were taught MATLAB as students and pay for it as researchers because it's all they know. I'd like to attempt to break the cycle by
