Sensitivity–Specificity Tradeoff (Interactive)

Toggle decision thresholds and see the corresponding sensitivity and specificity point-by-point (no simulated data; values come directly from the DISpro multi-threshold evaluation table reported in the paper).

1) Threshold→(Sensitivity, Specificity) scatter + selector

Click a threshold point or drag the slider to highlight a single threshold. Hover for exact values.

Selected threshold:

Sensitivity

—

Specificity

—

Higher sensitivity often reduces specificity (and vice versa). The best operating point depends on whether false negatives or false positives are more costly.

2) Sensitivity & Specificity vs Threshold (two-line view)

3) “Frontier” intuition (which points dominate?)

A point dominates another if it has both higher sensitivity and higher specificity. Below, dominated points are visually subdued.

What you can (and cannot) conclude

Known from the paper: DISpro reports sensitivity increasing as the disorder-call threshold is lowered, while specificity decreases; these tradeoff values are explicitly listed for multiple thresholds.
Uncertain/conditional: The “best” threshold is task- and cost-dependent (e.g., whether missing disordered residues is worse than calling ordered residues disordered). The paper provides tradeoff points, but you still need a downstream cost model or validation target to select an operating point.
Limitations: These tradeoff curves are tied to the evaluation dataset and thresholding scheme used by the authors; changes in dataset composition or evaluation protocol can shift the tradeoff.

Reproducibility note

This page uses only the threshold→(sensitivity, specificity) numbers provided in the cited paper excerpt within your input research data, and visualizes them directly (no re-fitting, no invented values).

2. This study benchmarks and extends the DISpro protein disorder predictor by enabling variable decision thresholds to trade off sensitivity and specificity on a large PDB-derived dataset, visualizes outputs for user-guided threshold selection, and benchmarks eight disorder predictors on CASP7 targets, showing DISpro remains among the top performers while benefiting from threshold flexibility.

3. Systematically analyzes how 38 drugs spanning multiple mechanisms reshape Escherichia coli growth dynamics at subinhibitory concentrations, develops a Gompertz-based framework to deconvolve lag time, growth rate, and carrying capacity, and reveals drug inactivation as a key determinant of lag-dominated phenotypes.

5. This study develops a large set of novel verbal fluency scores and combines them with brain-imaging measures in ensemble machine-learning classifiers to predict conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease over about 4 years, finding that the novel verbal fluency scores outperform raw scores and that MRI adds little additional predictive value.
