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:

Effects of aging on eye movements in the real world
TL;DR: Age-related eye-movement changes as measured in the laboratory only partly resemble those in the real world, and the importance of validity for natural situations when studying the impact of aging on real-life performance is highlighted.

The "proper" binormal model: parametric receiver operating characteristic curve estimation with degenerate data.
Xiaochuan Pan,Charles E. Metz +1 more
TL;DR: The proper binormal ROC model overcomes the problem of degeneracy in ROC curve fitting and yields ROC estimates with less bias and greater precision than those obtained with the conventional binormal model.
Las curvas ROC en la evaluación de las pruebas diagnósticas
TL;DR: Ausencia de acuerdo, tanto en el concepto, como en la medida de la calidad of a prueba diagnóstica, crea una situación de confusión a la hora de resolver cuestiones concretas.

Two transformation models for estimating an ROC curve derived from continuous data
Kelly H. Zou,W. J. Hall +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose and analyse semiparametric and parametric transformation models for this two-sample problem, assuming that the healthy and diseased measurements have two normal distributions with different means and variances.

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.
