PVBcorrect: A package to perform partial verification bias correction for estimates of accuracy measures in diagnostic accuracy studies

Description

The package contains a number of functions to perform partial verification bias (PVB) correction for estimates of accuracy measures in diagnostic accuracy studies. The available methods are: Begg and Greenes' method (as extended by Alonzo & Pepe, 2005), Begg and Greenes' method 1 and 2 (with PPV and NPV as extended by deGroot et al, 2011), multiple imputation method by logistic regression (Harel & Zhou, 2006), and EM-based logistic regression method (Kosinski & Barnhart, 2003).
