Greetings,
I have generated several ROC curves and would like to compare the AUCs.
The data are cross sectional and the outcomes are binary. I am testing
which of several models provide the best discrimination. Would it be most
appropriate to report AUC with 95% CI's?
I have been looking in to the "net reclassification improvement" (see
below for reference) but thus far I can only find a version in Hmisc
package which requires survival data. Any idea what the best approach is
for cross-sectional data?
Thanks
