Receiver operating characteristic curves and fusion of multiple classifiers
Justin M. Hill, Mark E. Oxley, Kenneth W. Bauer · 2003
A classifier typically has parameters in them that can vary. thus a classifier is, in fact, a family of classi- fiers. Varying the parameters and graphing the probability of false positive verse probability of true positive yields the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. Given a collection of multiple classifiers, and assume the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve is know for each classifier. Can the ROC curve for the fused classifier be determined? We answer this question in this paper: This paper also present a unique the representation of thefusion of multiple where the fusion is based on Boolean rules.
