Computer Science
Science Advances
This work develops the first umbrella algorithm that implements the NP paradigm for all scoring-type classification methods, such as logistic regression, support vector machines, and random forests, and proposes a novel graphical tool for NP classification methods: NP receiver operating characteristic (NP-ROC) bands motivated by the popular ROC curves.

This study reports on the 1871–2010 trends in significant wave heights (Hs) in the North Atlantic, as statistically reconstructed from the 20th century reanalysis (20CR) ensemble of mean sea level…
Feature Augmentation via Nonparametrics and Selection (FANS) in High-Dimensional Classification
- Jianqing Fan, Yang Feng, Jiancheng Jiang, X. Tong
- 31 December 2013
Computer Science
Journal of the American Statistical Association
FANS is a high-dimensional classification method that involves nonparametric feature augmentation that is related to generalized additive models, but has better interpretability and computability.
