cgAUC-package {cgAUC} | R Documentation |
Calculate AUC when gold standard is continuous with large variables.
Description
In this package, the cgAUC is used to calculate the AUC-type measure raised in Obuchowski(2006) when gold standard is continuous.

Examples
# n = 100; p = 5;
# r.x = matrix(rnorm(n * p), , p) # raw data
# r.z = r.x[ ,1] + rnorm(n) # gold standard
# x = scale(r.x) # standardized of raw data
# z = scale(r.z) # standardized of gold standard
# h = n^(-1 / 2)
# t1 = cgAUC(r.x, r.z, h, delta = 1, auto = FALSE, tau = 1, scale = 1) # the delta be constant
# t1
# t2 = cgAUC(r.x, r.z, h, delta = 1, auto = TRUE, tau = 1, scale = 1) # the delta be variable
# t2
