ROCit

The goal of ROCit is to easily compute, summarize, and visualize the performance of a binary classifier. ROCit package provides flexibility to easily evaluate threshold-bound metrics, such as, accuracy, misclassification rate, sensitivity, specificity, F-Score. . Also, ROC curve, along with AUC, can be obtained using different methods, such as empirical, binormal and non-parametric. ROCit encompasses a wide variety of methods for constructing confidence interval of ROC curve and AUC. ROCit features the option of constructing empirical gains table, which is a handy tool for direct marketing. The package offers options for commonly used visualization, such as, ROC curve, KS plot, lift plot.

Example

This is a basic example which shows the workflow of assessing a binary classifier.

library(ROCit)
data("Loan")
summary(Loan$Status)
#>  CO  FP 
#> 131 769

Make a response

class <- ifelse(Loan$Status == "FP", 0, 1)

Use score as a predictor of defaulting

score <- Loan$Score

Calculate threshold-bound metrics

m<- measureit(score = score, class = class,
                     measure = c("ACC", "SENS", "SPEC", "FSCR"))

mymetrics <- as.data.frame(cbind(Cutoff = m$Cutoff, Depth = m$Depth,
                                 Accuracy = m$ACC, Sensitivity = m$SENS,
                                 Specificity = m$SPEC, `F-Score` = m$FSCR))
