Optimising area under the ROC curve using gradient descent
This paper introduces RankOpt, a linear binary classifier which optimises the area under the ROC curve (the AUC). Unlike standard binary classifiers, RankOpt adopts the AUC stat...

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, ...

Optimizing Classifier Performance via an Approximation to the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Statistic
When the goal is to achieve the best correct classification rate, cross entropy and mean squared error are typical cost functions used to optimize classifier performance. However,...
