Comparison of average Matthews Correlation Coefficients (MCCs) for RNASLOpt and Carnac(seed). 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 RNASLOpt and Carnac(seed)).
