Dear all, I want to measure the goodness of prediction of my linear model. That's why I was thinking about the area under roc curve. I'm trying the following, but I don't know how to avoid the error. Any help would be appreciated. library(ROCR) model.lm <- lm(log(outcome)~log(v1)+log(v2)+factor1) pred<-predict(model.lm) pred<-prediction(as.numeric(pred), as.numeric(log(outcome))) auc<-performance(pred,"auc") Error en prediction(as.numeric(pred), as.numeric(log(outcome))) : Number of classes is not equal to 2. ROCR currently supports only evaluation of binary classification tasks. user at host.com -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/area-under-roc-curve-tp3447420p3447420.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
area under roc curve

ROC area does not measure goodness of prediction but does measure pure predictive discrimination. The generalization of the ROC area is the C-index for continuous or censored Y. See for example the rcorr.cens function in the Hmisc package. Frank
