similar to: Computing Confidence Intervals for AUC in ROCR Package

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")

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 quite new to R and I have two questions regarding ROCR. 1. I have tried to understand how to extract area-under-curve value by looking at the ROCR document and googling. Still I am not sure if I am doing the right thing. Here is my code, is "auc1" the auc value? " pred1 <- prediction(resp1,label1) perf1 <- performance(pred1,"tpr","fpr") plot(

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

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 =

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

Guys, I used Random Forest with a couple of data sets I had to predict for binary response. In all the cases, the AUC of the training set is coming to be 1. Is this always the case with random forests? Can someone please clarify this? I have given a simple example, first using logistic regression and then using random forests to explain the problem. AUC of the random forest is coming out to be

Hi, there. Suppose I already have sensitivities and specificities. What is the quick R-function to calculate AUC for the ROC plot? There seem to be many R functions to calculate AUC. Thanks. Yulei [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I was lately debugging parts of my 'colAUC' function in caTools package, and in a process looked into other packages for calculating Areas Under ROC Curves (AUC). To my surprise I found at least 6 other functions: * wilcox.test * AUC from ROC package, * performance from ROCR package, * auROC from limma package, * ROC from Epi package, * roc.area from verification

Hello Is there an easy way, i.e. a function in a package, to calculate the area under the curve (AUC) for drug serum levels?

Hi, I would like to compare differences in AUC from 2 different models, glm and gam for predicting presence / absence. I know that in theory the model with a higher AUC is better, but what I am interested in is if statistically the increase in AUC from the glm model to the gam model is significant. I also read quite extensive discussions on the list about ROC and AUC but I still didn't find

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 have a question about ROCR package. I got the ROC curve plotted without any problem following the manual. However, I don't know to extract the values, e.g. y.values ( I think it is the area under the curve auc measure). The return is an object of class "performance" which have Slots and one of the slot is "y.values". I type the object and I can see them in

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")

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 am trying to compare the performances of several methods using the AUC0.1 and not the whole AUC. (meaning I wanted to compare to AUC's whose x axis only goes to 0.1 not 1) I came to know about the Mcneil Hanley test from Bernardo Rangel Tura and I referred to the original paper for the calculation of "r" which is an argument of the function cROC. I can only find the

Dear R-helper, I am working with ROCR of Tobias Sing et. al. to compare the performances of logistic and nnet models on a binary response. I had the performance plots, but I have problem finding out other performance statistics (eg. MSE/ASE, AUC). Any help on this? Thanks Ilham [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am doing a simulation with a relatively large data set (20,000 observations) for which I want to calculate the area under the Receiver Operator Curve (AUC) for many parameter combinations. I am using the ROC library and the following commands to generate each AUC: rocobj=rocdemo.sca(truth = ymis, data = model$fitted.values, rule = dxrule.sca) #generation of observed ROC object

Hallo! Does anybody know a way to calculate the sample size for comparing AUC of ROC curves against 'by chance' with AUC=0.5 (and/or against anothe AUC)? Thanks! Karl

Hi all, does anyone know why the area under the curve (AUC) is negative? I'm using ROC function with a logistic regression, package Epi. First time it happens... Thanks a lot!
