Annotation Edit Distance and Splice Complexity. This Figure shows three versions of the same annotation with their corresponding Annotation Edit Distance (AED) and Splice Complexity (SC) values. The left column shows the AED values between the three releases. The right column, SC values for each version. In release 1, the annotation consists of a single transcript with three exons. In release 2, 3' UTR has been added, increasing the AED, but leaving SC unchanged. In release 3, a second, alternatively-spliced transcript has been added, increasing AED and SC. The black portions of each transcript denote its translated portion. See Methods section for the details of the calculation.
