pysteps.verification.probscores.ROC_curve¶
- pysteps.verification.probscores.ROC_curve(P_f, X_o, X_min, n_prob_thrs=10, compute_area=False)¶
Compute the ROC curve and its area from the given ROC object.
- Parameters
- P_f: array_like
Forecasted probabilities for exceeding the threshold specified in the ROC object. Non-finite values are ignored.
- X_o: array_like
Observed values. Non-finite values are ignored.
- X_min: float
Precipitation intensity threshold for yes/no prediction.
- n_prob_thrs: int
The number of probability thresholds to use. The interval [0,1] is divided into n_prob_thrs evenly spaced values.
- compute_area: bool
If True, compute the area under the ROC curve (between 0.5 and 1).
- Returns
- out: tuple
A two-element tuple containing the probability of detection (POD) and probability of false detection (POFD) for the probability thresholds specified in the ROC curve object. If compute_area is True, return the area under the ROC curve as the third element of the tuple.
