Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves: review of methods with applications in diagnostic medicine

Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2018
Abstract Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis is a tool used to describe the discrimination accuracy of a diagnostic test or prediction model. While sensitivity and specificity are the basic metrics of accuracy, they have many limitations when characterizing test accuracy, particularly when comparing the accuracies of ...

Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves and non‐normal data: An empirical study

Statistics in Medicine, 1990
AbstractThis paper evaluates the performance of several diagnostic kits for assessing levels of serum prostatic acid phosphatase on patients at different stages of cancer of the prostate. Each patient was studied with several kits. We compare results obtained for receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve methodology with data assumed to follow a ...

An Evaluation of Methods for Estimating the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve

Medical Decision Making, 1985
The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve serves as one means for evaluating the performance of diagnostic and predictive test systems. The most commonly used method for estimating the area under an ROC curve utilizes the maximum-likelihood-estimation technique, and a nonparametric method to calculate the area under an ROC curve ...

A constrained formulation for the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve based on probability summation

Medical Physics, 2001
We propose a principled formulation of the ROC curve that is constrained in a realistic way by the mechanism of probability summation. The constrained and conventional ROC formulations were fitted to 150 separate sets of rating data taken from previous observer studies of 250 or 529 chest radiographs.

[ROC (receiver operating characteristics) curve: principles and application in biology].

Annales de biologie clinique, 2005
Laboratory test's diagnostic performances are generally estimated by means of their sensibility, specificity and positive and negative predictive values. Unfortunately, these indices reflect only imperfectly the capacity of a test to correctly classify subjects into clinically relevant subgroups.

A Visicalc Program for Estimating the Area Under a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve

Medical Decision Making, 1985
The area under the ROC curve interests us as a method for analyzing discrimination or detectability. One can assess a diagnostic test or probability assessor with respect to its degree of discrimination. The area under the ROC curve gives us the probability of correctly identifying abnormal from normal in a forced-choice, two-alternative problem ...
