public class SensitivityForFixedSpecificity
extends AbstractNumericalTwoClassPerformanceMeasure

This class implements the sensitivity for a fixed specificity. The sensitivity is defined as and the specificity is defined as . The classification threshold for computing the sensitivity is chosen such that the classifier yields at least the specified specificity.

Constructor Detail

SensitivityForFixedSpecificity

public SensitivityForFixedSpecificity()

Constructs a new instance of the performance measure SensitivityForFixedSpecificity with empty parameter values.

SensitivityForFixedSpecificity

public SensitivityForFixedSpecificity(double specificity)
                               throws Exception

Constructs a new instance of the performance measure SensitivityForFixedSpecificity with given specificity.

Parameters:

specificity - the specificity for which the sensitivity should be computed

Throws:

Exception - if the internal parameters can not be created or the value can not be set

SensitivityForFixedSpecificity

public SensitivityForFixedSpecificity(StringBuffer xml)
                               throws NonParsableException

The standard constructor for the interface Storable. Constructs a SensitivityForFixedSpecificity out of an XML representation.

Parameters:

xml - the XML representation as StringBuffer

Throws:

NonParsableException - if the SensitivityForFixedSpecificity could not be reconstructed out of the StringBuffer xml

Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: PerformanceMeasure

The method returns the name of the performance measure.

Specified by:

getName in interface PerformanceMeasure

Specified by:

getName in class AbstractPerformanceMeasure

Returns:

the name of the performance measure

compute

public NumericalResultSet compute(double[] sortedScoresClass0,
                         double[] weightClass0,
                         double[] sortedScoresClass1,
                         double[] weightClass1)

Description copied from interface: NumericalPerformanceMeasure

This method allows to compute the performance measure of given sorted score ratios. This method can only be used for binary classifiers.

Specified by:

compute in interface NumericalPerformanceMeasure

Specified by:

compute in interface PerformanceMeasure

Specified by:

compute in class AbstractNumericalTwoClassPerformanceMeasure

Parameters:

sortedScoresClass0 - the sorted score ratios of class 0

weightClass0 - the weights of the sequences of class 0 sorted along with the scores sortedScoresClass0

sortedScoresClass1 - the sorted score ratios of class 1

weightClass1 - the weights of the sequences of class 1 sorted along with the scores sortedScoresClass1

Returns:

a result set containing the results of the performance measure
