sklearn.metrics.auc

sklearn.metrics.auc(x, y, reorder=False)

Compute Area Under the Curve (AUC) using the trapezoidal rule

This is a general function, given points on a curve. For computing the area under the ROC-curve, see roc_auc_score.

Parameters :

x : array, shape = [n]

x coordinates.

y : array, shape = [n]

y coordinates.

reorder : boolean, optional (default=False)

If True, assume that the curve is ascending in the case of ties, as for an ROC curve. If the curve is non-ascending, the result will be wrong.

Returns :

auc : float

Compute precision-recall pairs for different probability thresholds

Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from sklearn import metrics
>>> y = np.array([1, 1, 2, 2])
>>> pred = np.array([0.1, 0.4, 0.35, 0.8])
>>> fpr, tpr, thresholds = metrics.roc_curve(y, pred, pos_label=2)
>>> metrics.auc(fpr, tpr)
