x |
a vector of observations from class P. |
y |
a vector of observations from class N. |
conf.level |
confidence level of the interval. The default is 0.95. |
dist |
the name of a parametric distribution. |
method |
a method used to construct the CI. |
Use a variety of frequentist methods for different parametric models to estimate the AUC.
Point estimate and lower and upper bounds of the CI of the AUC.
The observations from class P tend to have larger values then that from class N.
