Hello,
is there some preferred way, such as readily built command, to plot the AUC curve with Metrics package such as with RORC pkg [1]?

Hi Heoa. I am the new maintainer of the Metrics R package, which is located on github. This package cannot plot the ROC curve. The Metrics package attains the AUC of the ROC curve without actually generating the curve itself. Instead, it calculates the Mann-Whitney U Statistic, which is equivalent to AUROC. However, the ROCR or precrec packages in R can generate the curves.
