ADVANTAGES AND EXAMPLES OF RESAMPLING FOR CAD EVALUATION

Comparison of performance accuracy between different computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) devices is a challenging task. Anatomical structure of the patient and imaging geometry introduce many possible correlations among scores produced by a CAD. Numerous analysis methods have been designed to account for the correlations among CAD scores or the variable number of CAD marks, but usually not both. However, methods that resample by case incorporate both of these sources of variability while accounting for in-case correlations. In this paper we present some examples of the use of resampling on CAD score data
