Success estimate of the extraction pipeline by human expert manual validation. These percentages were calculated upon a manual sampling and validation protocol conducted on 100 abstracts. Correct – Database confirmed: These are the mutations that have been found already in at least one of the analyzed databases (Uniprot, SAAPdb, COSMIC, KinMutBase or Greenman). Correct-Manual validation: This subset corresponds to the mutation-protein pairs that have been found correct after manual validation on 100 abstracts. Correct – Orthologue: This subset corresponds to the cases where mapping is confirmed by manual validation and the mutation is mapped to a non-human orthologue. Incorrect Mutation to Protein Assignment: Corresponds to the cases where both proteins share the same amino acid at the mutated position and the algorithm choses the incorrect pair. Incorrect Mutation assignment: Cases where the mutation is not properly identified. An interesting particular case are the confusion with cell lines (accounting 66% of this category) Too ambiguous even for human experts: Odd little informative cases where even human experts reading the abstracts are not able to identify to which protein the mutation corresponds to.
