Abstract
A method of determining a false and/or a true positive rate is provided. A true count value and a false count value are initialized for probability bins. For a plurality of records, a truth of event occurrence and a probability of occurrence are read; a probability bin that includes the probability of occurrence is determined; the true count value of the determined probability bin is incremented when the truth of event occurrence indicates true; and the false count value of the determined probability bin is incremented when the truth of event occurrence indicates false. A true positive rate and a false positive rate are computed for each probability bin based on the true count value, the false count value, a determined total number of true event occurrences, and a determined total number of false event occurrences.
