similar to: ROC from R-SVM?

I might be missing something but I thought that AUC was a measure for comparing ROC curves, so there is nothing else needed to "compare" them. The larger AUC is the higher correlation of 2 variables compared. No other measures or calculations are needed.

Dear all, I try to compare the performances of several parameters to diagnose lameness in dogs. I have several ROC curves from the same dataset. I plotted the ROC curves and calculated AUC with the ROCR package. I would like to compare the AUC. I used the following program I found on R-help archives : From: Bernardo Rangel Tura Date: Thu 16 Dec 2004 - 07:30:37 EST

Dear all, I want to measure the goodness of prediction of my linear model. That's why I was thinking about the area under roc curve. I'm trying the following, but I don't know how to avoid the error. Any help would be appreciated. library(ROCR) model.lm <- lm(log(outcome)~log(v1)+log(v2)+factor1) pred<-predict(model.lm) pred<-prediction(as.numeric(pred),

Hello, I would like to use the ROCR package to draw ROC curves and compute AUC values. However, in the specific context of my application, the true positive rates and false positive rates are already provided by some upstream method. Of course, I can draw a ROC plot with the following command : plot(x=FPrate, y=TPrate, "o", xlab="false positive rate", ylab="true

Hi, I need to build ROC curve in R, can you please provide data steps / code or guide me through it. Thanks and Regards Rithesh M Mohan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear Guru's, Is there a package (R of course) with programs for diagnostics - roc, sens , spec, kappa etc? Best wishes Fredrik L

Hello list, I am trying to perform ROC analysis and count the AUC in order to validate my results. I use package ROCR. I would like to count the AUC not under the cutoff found by "performance" but to use another cutoff that I calculate. How could I change the following command in order to get what I want? perform=performance(pred,measure="auc",x.measure="cutoff"),

Hi, there: Could someone tell me a simple function of plot ROC curve and calculate AUC in R? My setting is very simple, a column of the true binary response and another column of predicted probabilities. Thanks! Yulei [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I'm trying to set up a prediction software, now i testing the performance of my method, so i need to calculate a ROC curve, specially auc, cut-off, sens and spec, i just looking at ROCH package, but it's a mass for me, i'm not a math guy and I'm getting lost Could any of you recommend me an easy-to-use package to do this task? i just have a list of positive/negative samples

I use ROCR to plot multiple runs' performance. Using the sample code as example: # plot ROC curves for several cross-validation runs (dotted # in grey), overlaid by the vertical average curve and boxplots # showing the vertical spread around the average. data(ROCR.xval) pred <- prediction(ROCR.xval$predictions, ROCR.xval$labels) perf <- performance(pred,"tpr","fpr")

Hi everybody, I have a data set with a value and a status (positive or negative case) and I want make a ROC Analysis. So, with ROCR Package, I have got the ROC curve (True Positive Fraction [tpf] according 1-True Negative Fraction [1-tnf]). http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4469203/01.png But, now I want a new graphic which show the sum of true positive fraction and true negative fraction

Hi, i have a fairly large amount of genomic data. I have created a dataframe which has "Reference" as one column and "Variation" as another. I want to plot a ROC curve based on these 2 columns. I have serached the R manual but I could not understand. Can anybody help me with the R code for plotting ROC curve. Thnx ashu6886 -- View this message in context:

Hola! Tengo que hacer una curva ROC com unos datos que obtuve de hacer una macro de excel y aplicar unas reglas, y basicamente tengo que a partir de la variacion del tiempo y la velocidad del barco obtengo diferentes porcentajes de true positives (TP) y false positives (FP) y con eso deberia de construir una curva ROC. Dada mi ignorância en este tema, no se muy bien por donde empezar , estuve

Dear list   I have 5 markers that can be used to detect an infection in combination. Could you please advise me how to use functions in ROCR/ other package to produce the ROC curve for a combination of markers?   I have used the following to get ROC statistics for each marker. pred <- prediction(y$marker1, y$infectn) perf <-performance(pred,"tpr","fpr")

Hi I'm new to stats and R, so can you please help me or guide me building ROC curve in an elaborate way with codes I loaded ROCR package, but I'm not sure how to use it. Requirement To build ROC curve using only PSA(variable) alone of the original cohort against the ROC of the Model of the original cohort. It would be really great if you could help me with this. Thanks

Dear R-philes, I am plotting ROC curves for several cross-validation runs of a classifier (using the function below). In addition to the average AUC, I am interested in obtaining a confidence interval for the average AUC. Is there a straightforward way to do this via the ROCR package? plot_roc_curve <- function(roc.dat, plt.title) { #print(str(vowel.ROC)) pred <-

Hi, I understand for 1 d classifiers, you can use ROCR package. Is there a package you can plot ROC curve for 2d classifiers? One of my colleagues asked me about this. I have been quite puzzled, conceptually, how you can do the ROC curve for 2d classifiers. Can someone share his/her knowledge or experience? Thanks in advance. -- Waverley @ Palo Alto

Hi, I don't really understand how ROCR works. Here's another example with a randomforest model: I have the training dataset(bank_training) and testing dataset(bank_testing) and I ran a randomForest as below: bankrf<-randomForest(y~., bank_training, mtry=4, ntree=2, keep.forest=TRUE,importance=TRUE) bankrf.pred<-predict(bankrf, bank_testing)

Packages pROC and ROCR both calculate/approximate the Area Under (Receiver Operator) Curve. However the results are different. I am computing a new variable as a predictor for a label. The new variable is a (non-linear) function of a set of input values, and I'm checking how different parameter settings contribute to prediction. All my settings are predictive, but some are better. The AUC i

Hi, I am new here. I would like to compare the performance of the random forest model with support vector machine. Can anybody let me know how to generate a ROC curve for random forest model since there is no need to run the cross-validation. Thank you very much!
