A comparison of AUC estimators in small-sample studies
Reliable estimation of the classification performance of learned predictive models is difficult, when working in the small sample setting. When dealing with biological data it is ...

A Large Deviation Bound for the Area Under the ROC Curve
The area under the ROC curve (AUC) has been advocated as an evaluation criterion for the bipartite ranking problem. We study large deviation properties of the AUC; in particular, ...
