similar to: generate ROC curve using randomForest package

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

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'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

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),

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 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]]

*Hi, *Does anyone know how can I show an *ROC curve for R-SVM*? I understand in R-SVM we are not optimizing over SVM cost parameter. Any example ROC for R-SVM code or guidance can be really useful. Thanks, Angel. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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)

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 <-

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")

Hello, I am making some use of ROC curve analysis. I find much help on the mailing list, and I have used the Area Under the Curve (AUC) functions from the ROC function in the bioconductor project... http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/release1.5/package/Source/ ROC_1.0.13.tar.gz However, I read here... http://www.medcalc.be/manual/mpage06-13b.php "The 95% confidence interval for

Hi all, I would like to calculate the area under the ROC curve for my predictive model. I have managed to plot points giving me the ROC curve. However, I do not know how to get the value of the area under. Does anybody know of a function that would give the result I want using an array of specificity and an array of sensitivity as input?

Hello all, I am very new to R and i am facing two problems. First i didn't succeed changing the konsole language in english even after trying the line command set language='en'. I would like to plot ROC curves. I have a serie of 10 threshold tests that i do for 10 patients. The prediction for the patients is always the same but the status can change given to the considered threshold.

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(

Hi, I was trying to draw some ROC curves (prediction of case/control status), but seem to be getting a somewhat jagged plot. Can I do something that would 'smooth' it somewhat? Most roc curves seem to have many incremental changes (in x and y directions), but my plot only has 4 or 5 steps even though there are 22 data points. Should I be doing something differently? How can I provide a

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 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

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]]
