Boosting the Area under the ROC Curve
We show that any weak ranker that can achieve an area under the ROC curve slightly better than 1/2 (which can be achieved by random guessing) can be effi

A boosting method for maximizing the partial area under the ROC curve
Background: The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is a fundamental tool to assess the discriminant performance for not only a single marker but also a score function c...

Optimizing Area Under Roc Curve with SVMs
For many years now, there is a growing interest around ROC curve for characterizing machine learning performances. This is particularly due to the fact that in real-world problems ...

Learning Mixtures of Localized Rules by Maximizing the Area Under the ROC Curve
We introduce a model class for statistical learning which is based on mixtures of propositional rules. In our mixture model, the weight of a rule is not uniform over the entire ins...

Relationship between Identification Metrics: Expected Confusion and Area Under a ROC Curve
The mathematical relationship between the expectedconfusion metric and the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is derived. Given a limited database of subje...
