MetricsWeighted (version 0.5.3)

AUC: Area under the ROC

Description

Function modified from glmnet package (modified to ensure deterministic results). Calculates weighted AUC, i.e. the area under the receiver operating curve. The larger, the better.

Usage

AUC(actual, predicted, w = NULL, ...)

Arguments

actual

Observed values (0 or 1).

predicted

Predicted values of any value (not necessarly between 0 and 1).

w

Optional case weights.

...

Further arguments passed by other methods.

Value

A numeric vector of length one.

Details

The unweighted version can be different from the weighted one with unit weights due to ties in predicted.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
AUC(c(0, 0, 1, 1), c(0.1, 0.1, 0.9, 0.8))
AUC(c(1, 0, 0, 1), c(0.1, 0.1, 0.9, 0.8))
# different from last due to ties 'in predicted':
AUC(c(1, 0, 0, 1), c(0.1, 0.1, 0.9, 0.8), w = rep(1, 4))
# }
