Semiparametric methods provide smooth and continuous receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve fits to ordinal test results and require only that the data follow some unknown monotonic transformation of the model's assumed distributions. The quantitative relationship between cutoff settings or individual test-result values on the data scale and points on the estimated ROC curve is lost in this...
Estimation of ROC curves and their associated indices from experimental data can be problematic, especially in multireader, multicase (MRMC) observer studies. Wilcoxon estimates of area under the curve (AUC) can be strongly biased with categorical data, whereas the conventional binormal ROC curve-fitting model may produce unrealistic fits. The “proper” binormal model (PBM) was introduced by Metz and...
