----

**What it does**

Takes as input cross-validation predictions and calculates ROC Curve and its area under curve (AUC).

----

**Results**

ROC Curve: Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve. Compares true positive rate (sensitivity) to false positive rate (1 - specificity).  

Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC): Probability that of a randomly selected positive/negative pair, the positive will be scored more highly by the trained SVM than a negative.

.. class:: infomark

ROC curves can be inaccurate if there is a large skew in class distribution.  For more information see:
