plot.mcca.hum: Plot 3D ROC surface

In mcca: Multi-Category Classification Accuracy

Description

plot the 3D ROC surface for a three-category classifier using the 3-dimensional point coordinates, computed by obj which is a mcca.hum class.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'mcca.hum'
plot(x,labs=levels(x$y),coords=1:3,nticks=5,filename='fig.png',cex=0.7, ...)

Arguments

x	An mcca.hum class object, containing probability matrix and labels.
labs	The label names of three coordinates. Default is 'levels(x$y)'.
coords	The coordinates markers. Default is 'c(1,2,3)', which means labs[1] is the x-axis (class 1), labs[2] is the z-axis (class 3) and labs[3] is the y-axis (class 2).
nticks	Suggested number of ticks.
filename	Filename to save snapshot.
cex	Size for text.
...	further arguments to 'plot.default'.

Details

This function is to plot the 3D ROC surface according to the correct classification probabilities for the three categories, resulted from any statistical or machine learning methods. This function complements the HUM package which can only plot 3D ROC surface for a single diagnostic test or biomarker for three classes.

Value

The function doesn't return any value.
