Calculate Cumulative/Dynamic AUC loss

Description

This function subtracts the C/D AUC metric from one to obtain a loss function whose lower values indicate better model performance (useful for permutational feature importance)

Usage

loss_one_minus_cd_auc(y_true = NULL, risk = NULL, surv = NULL, times = NULL)

Arguments

y_true

a survival::Surv object containing the times and statuses of observations for which the metric will be evaluated

risk

ignored, left for compatibility with other metrics

surv

a matrix containing the predicted survival functions for the considered observations, each row represents a single observation, whereas each column one time point

times

a vector of time points at which the survival function was evaluated

Value

a numeric vector of length equal to the length of the times vector, each value (from the range from 0 to 1) represents 1 - AUC metric at a specific time point, with lower values indicating better performance.
