Performance plots


  1. Comparison of performance of PknotsRG and McQFold. 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 PknotsRG and McQFold).

  2. Comparison of average Matthews Correlation Coefficients (MCCs) for PknotsRG and McQFold. 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 PknotsRG and McQFold).
