Confidence Intervals for the Area Under the ROC Curve
In many applications, good ranking is a highly desirable performance for a classifier. The criterion commonly used to measure the ranking quality of a classification algorithm is ...

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...

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...

Maximizing the Area under the ROC Curve with Decision Lists and Rule Sets
Decision lists (or ordered rule sets) have two attractive properties compared to unordered rule sets: they require a simpler classification procedure and they allow for a more co...

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, ...
