A relationship between the incremental values of area under the ROC curve and of area under the precision-recall curve [PDF]
Background Incremental value (IncV) evaluates the performance change between an existing risk model and a new model. Different IncV metrics do not always agree with each other. For example, compared with a prescribed-dose model, an ovarian-dose model for

An analytic expression for the binormal partial area under the ROC curve. [PDF]
The partial area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (pAUC) is a useful summary measure for diagnostic studies. Unlike most summary measures that are functions of the ROC curve, researchers have not been aware of an analytic expression available for computing the pAUC for an ROC curve based on a latent binormal model.

Estimation of Area Under the ROC Curve under nonignorable verification bias. [PDF]
The Area Under the Receiving Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) is frequently used for assessing the overall accuracy of a diagnostic marker. However, estimation of AUC relies on knowledge of the true outcomes of subjects: diseased or non-diseased.

The area under the ROC curve as a measure of clustering quality
The Area Under the the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) Curve, referred to as AUC, is a well-known performance measure in the supervised learning domain. Due to its compelling features, it has been employed in a number of studies to evaluate and compare the performance of different classifiers.
