Confidence intervals for differences between volumes under receiver operating characteristic surfaces (VUS) and generalized Youden indices (GYIs)
(2018)This article explores both existing and new methods for the construction of confidence intervals for differences of indices of diagnostic accuracy of competing pairs of biomarkers in three-class classification problems and ... -
Construction of joint confidence regions for the optimal true class fractions of Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) surfaces and manifolds
(2017)The three-class approach is used for progressive disorders when clinicians and researchers want to diagnose or classify subjects as members of one of three ordered categories based on a continuous diagnostic marker. The ... -
Demographic window to aging in the wild: Constructing life tables and estimating survival functions from marked individuals of unknown age
(2004)We address the problem of establishing a survival schedule for wild populations. A demographic key identity is established, leading to a method whereby age-specific survival and mortality can be deduced from a marked cohort ... -
Generalization of Youden index for multiple-class classification problems applied to the assessment of externally validated cognition in Parkinson disease screening
(2013)Routine cognitive screening in Parkinson disease (PD) has become essential for management, to track progression and to assess clinical status in therapeutic trials. Patients with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) are more ... -
Multi-parametric MRI lesion heterogeneity biomarkers for breast cancer diagnosis
(2020)Purpose: To identify intra-lesion imaging heterogeneity biomarkers in multi-parametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (mpMRI) for breast lesion diagnosis. Methods: Dynamic Contrast Enhanced (DCE) and Diffusion Weighted Imaging ... -
