Comparison of performance of McQFold and CRWrnafold. Positive Predictive Value (PPV) is plotted against sensitivity. Each dot represents a single test of each method. See tables below for raw data (individual counts for McQFold and CRWrnafold).
Comparison of average Matthews Correlation Coefficients (MCCs) for McQFold and CRWrnafold. The whiskers correspond to 95% confidence intervals (CIs). 'n' denotes the number of MCCs used to calculate average MCCs and CIs. See tables below for raw data (individual counts for McQFold and CRWrnafold).
