A simplified method to approximate a ROC curve with a Bézier curve to calculate likelihood ratios of quantitative test results
In order to calculate likeli hood ratios (LR) values for quantitative test results, a distribution-independent algorithm based on Bézier curves is proposed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis provides the LR as the slope of the tangent to the ROC curve at the point corresponding to the...
