Recommendations

• Assessing the performance of classification methods
• Evaluating Whether a Binary Decision Rule Operates Better Than Chance
• ROC analysis with multiple classes and multiple tests: methodology and its application in microarray studies
• Finding the optimal threshold of a parametric ROC curve under a continuous diagnostic measurement
• Biomarker assessment in ROC curve analysis using the length of the curve as an index of diagnostic accuracy: the binormal model framework
