TLDR
In this article, receiver operating characteristic graphs are shown to be a variant form of ordinal dominance graphs, and several different methods of constructing confidence intervals for the area measure are presented and the strengths and weaknesses of each of these methods are discussed.About:

Reliable and computationally efficient maximum-likelihood estimation of "proper" binormal ROC curves
Lorenzo L. Pesce,Charles E. Metz +1 more
TL;DR: This implementation of the PBM is reliable in a wide variety of ROC curve-fitting tasks and produced good fits for all of the several million datasets on which it was tested.

Energy transmittance predicts conductive hearing loss in older children and adults.
TL;DR: Ambient-pressure ATF may have sufficient accuracy to use in some hearing-screening applications, whereas pressurized ATF has additional accuracy that may be appropriate for hearing-diagnostic applications.

Substaging of T1 bladder carcinoma based on the depth of invasion as measured by micrometer: A new proposal.
TL;DR: A significant number of T1 bladder carcinoma patients are understaged by transurethral resection of the bladder (TURB), indicating a substantial need for more accurate staging.

Prospective Comparison of Prognostic Scores in Palliative Care Cancer Populations
Marco Maltoni,Emanuela Scarpi,Cristina Pittureri,Francesca Martini,Luigi Montanari,Elena Amaducci,Stefania Derni,Laura Fabbri,Marta Rosati,Dino Amadori,Oriana Nanni +10 more
TL;DR: All four prognostic scores used in palliative care studies accurately identify classes of patients with different survival probabilities, and the PaP Score has been extensively validated and shows high accuracy and reproducibility in different settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specificity in protein interactions and its relationship with sequence diversity and coevolution.
TL;DR: It is found that the absolute expression level outperformed correlated evolution for predicting interacting protein partners and indicates that the observed correlated evolution of interacting proteins is due to similar constraints on evolutionary rate and not coevolution.

On a Test of Whether one of Two Random Variables is Stochastically Larger than the Other
Henry B. Mann,D. R. Whitney +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the limit distribution is normal if n, n$ go to infinity in any arbitrary manner, where n = m = 8 and n = n = 8.

Consistency and Unbiasedness of Certain Nonparametric Tests
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there exist strictly unbiased and consistent tests for the univariate and multivariate two-and fc-sample problem, for the hypothesis of independence, and for the hypotheses of symmetry with respect to a given point.
On a Use of the Mann-Whitney Statistic
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of the known properties of the U statistic which are of importance for its use in testing hypotheses and discuss another use of this statistic which has attracted less attention.
