Abstract
The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is usually used in biomedicine as an indicator of the accuracy of diagnostic tests. However, this measure of discrimination has been little used in other areas, such as animal biology or ecology. We present a novel application of an ROC analysis in which gonad colour was used to determine the sex of Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck, 1816), a sea urchin of considerable commercial interest. A better classifier than gonad colour was obtained by transforming these colours through flexible logistic generalized additive models.
