Christian,

My questions concerns the ROCR package and I hope somebody here on
the list can help - or point me to some better place.

When evaluating a model's performane, like this:


pred1<- predict(model, ..., type="response") pred2<-
prediction(pred1, binary_classifier_vector) perf<- performance(pred,
"sens", "spec")

(Where "prediction" and "performance" are ROCR-functions.)

How can I then retrieve the cutoff value for the
sensitivity/specificity tradeoff with regard to the data in the model
(e.g. model = glm(binary_classifier_vector ~ data, family="binomial",
data=some_dataset)? Perhaps I missed something in the manual? Or do I
need an entirely different approach for this? Or is there an
alternative solution?

a) look into the performance object, you find all values there

b) have a look at this thread
