They are used extensively in medical diagnosis and increasingly in fields such as data mining, credit scoring, weather forecasting, and psychometry. In Analyzing Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves with SAS, author Mithat Gonen illustrates the many existing SAS procedures that can be tailored to produce ROC curves and expands upon further analyses using other SAS procedures and macros. Both parametric and nonparametric methods for analyzing ROC curves are covered in detail.Topics addressed include:Appropriate methods for binary, ordinal, and continuous measuresComputations using PROC FREQ, PROC LOGISTIC, PROC NLMIXED, and macrosComparing the ROC curves of several markers and adjusting them for covariatesROC curves with censored dataUsing the ROC curve for evaluating multivariable prediction models via bootstrap and cross-validationROC curves in SAS Enterprise MinerAnd more!Written for any statistician interested in learning more about ROC curve methodology, the book assumes readers have a basic understanding of regression procedures and moderate familiarity with Base SAS and SAS/STAT. Some familiarity with SAS/GRAPH is helpful but not essential.This book is part of the SAS Press program.
