Bias-Corrected Methods for Estimating the ROC Surface of Continuous Diagnostic Tests

Description

This package provides tools for correcting verification bias in the evaluation of a continuous diagnostic test. More precisely, five bias-corrected methods for ROC surface and VUS inference are provided under MAR assumption, i.e., full imputation (FI), mean score imputation (MSI), inverse probability weighting (IPW), semiparametric efficient (SPE) and K nearest-neighbor (KNN) estimator.
