similar to: use of "rcorr.cens" with binary response?

Dear R-help, This is an example in the {Hmisc} manual under rcorr.cens function: > set.seed(1) > x <- round(rnorm(200)) > y <- rnorm(200) > round(rcorr.cens(x, y, outx=F),4) C Index Dxy S.D. n missing uncensored Relevant Pairs Concordant Uncertain 0.4831 -0.0338 0.0462 200.0000

Hi, I'm trying to calculate 95% confidence interval of C statistic of logistic regression model using rcorr.cens in rms package. I wrote a brief function for this purpose as the followings; CstatisticCI <- function(x) # x is object of rcorr.cens. { se <- x["S.D."]/sqrt(x["n"]) Low95 <- x["C Index"] - 1.96*se Upper95 <- x["C

Hello R Community, I'm continuing to work through logistic regression (thanks for all the help on score test) and have come up against a new opposition. I'm trying to compute Somers Dyx as some suggest this is the preferred method to Somers Dxy (Demaris, 1992). I have searchered the [R] archieves to no avail for a function or code to compute Dyx (not Dxy). The overview of Hmisc has

Dear r-helpers! I want to classify my vegetation data with hierachical cluster analysis. My Dataset consist of Abundance-Values (Braun-Blanquet ordinal scale; ranked) for each plant species and relev?. I found a lot of r-packages dealing with cluster analysis, but none of them is able to calculate a distance measure for ranked data. Podani recommends the use of Goodman and Kruskals' Gamma for

Dear List, I would like to calculate the Goodman-Kruskal gamma for the predicted classes obtained from an ordinal regression model using lrm in the Design package. I couldn't find a way to get gamma for predicted values in Design so have found previous positings suggesting to use : Rcorr.cens(x, S outx = TRUE) in the Hmisc package My question is, will this work for predicted vs

Hi R-users, I'm having some problems in using the Hmisc package. I'm estimating a cox ph model and want to test whether the drop in concordance index due to omitting one covariate is significant. I think (but I'm not sure) here are two ways to do that: 1) predict two cox model (the full model and model without the covariate of interest) and estimate the concordance index (i.e. area

Dear R-helpers: I want to calculate area under a Receiver Operator Characteristic curve. Where can I find related functions? Thank you in advance Xiao

lrm does some binning to make the calculations faster. The exact calculation is obtained by running f <- lrm(...) rcorr.cens(predict(f), DA), which results in: C Index Dxy S.D. n missing 0.96814404 0.93628809 0.03808336 32.00000000 0.00000000 uncensored Relevant Pairs Concordant Uncertain 32.00000000

Dear all, I am now doing the logistic regression using R. (glm, family=binomial). Besides the standardize summary statistics generated from R, I am also interested in some more informations concerning the model fitting / prediction etc; Particularly I am interested in "pseudo R squar" and "C statistic". I searched the R- help and could only get very limited information. (Post

I have two alternative Cox models with C-statistics 0.72 and 0.78. My question is if 0.78 is significantly greater than 0.72. I'm using rcorrp.cens. I cannot find the U statistics in the output of the function. This is the output of the help example: > x1 <- rnorm(400) > x2 <- x1 + rnorm(400) > d.time <- rexp(400) + (x1 - min(x1)) > cens <- runif(400,.5,2) > death

Does anyone know how to get the C-index from a logistic model - not using the dataset that was used to train the model, but instead using a fresh dataset on the same model? I have a dataset of 400 points that I've split into two halves, one for training the logistic model, and the other for evaluating it. The structure is as follows: column headers are "got a loan" (dichotomous),

I am using the rcorr.cens function from the Hmisc package and the time-dependent ROC curve obtained using tdrocc in the survcomp package. I understand that the C statistic from rcorr.cens has to be subtracted from 1 if high values of the risk variable lower survival. Given that I wonder what the connection is between that C statistic and the AUC from the tdrocc object. If they are substantially

Hello, I'm a biostatistician in Toronto. I would like to know if there is anything in survival analysis developed in R for the method "Evaluating the Yield of Medical Test" (JAMA. May 14,1982--Vol 247, No.18 Frank E. Harrell, Jr,PhD; Robert M. Califf, MD; David B. Pryor, MD;Kerry L.Lee, PhD; Robert A. Rosait,MD.) Hope to hear from you and thanks Lisa Wang, MSc Project Organiser

Sorry I have a very simple question: I used somers2 function from Design package: > z<- somers2(x,y, weights=w) results are: >z C Dxy n Missing 0.88 0.76 500 0.00 Now I want to call only the value of C to be used in further analyses, but I fail to do it. I have tried: > z$C NULL > z[,C] Error in z[,C]: incorrect number of dimensions and some other silly

I know how to compute the ROC curve and the empirical AUC from the logistic regression after fitting the model. But here is my question, how can I compute the standard error for the AUC estimator resulting form logistic regression? The variance should be more complicated than AUC based on known test results. Does anybody know a reference on this problem? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi everyone, I am doing 5 years mortality predictive index score with survival analysis using a Cox proportional hazard model where I have a continous predictive variable and a right censored response which is the mortality, and the individuals were followed a maximum of 7 years. I'd like to asses the discrimination ability of survival analysis Cox model by computing a ROC curve and area

Hello, I have a classification tree. I want to obtain a ROC curve for this test. What is the easiest way to obtain one? -Anjali --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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]]

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 <-

Dear List, I am trying to assess the prediction accuracy of an ordinal model fit with LRM in the Design package. I used predict.lrm to predict on an independent dataset and am now attempting to assess the accuracy of these predictions. >From what I have read, the AUC is good for this because it is threshold independent. I obtained the AUC for the fit model output from the c score (c =
