The accuracy of a medical diagnostic test is typically summarized by the sensitivity and specificity when the test result is dichotomous. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves are measures of ...

This paper presents a nonparametric approach to the analysis of areas under correlated ROC curves, by using the theory on generalized U-statistics to generate an estimated covariance matrix.

An algorithm for estimating haplotypes associated with several quantitative phenotypes is proposed. The concept of a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was introduced, and a linear ...
