Table 5 Comparison with published breakpoints

Method	predicted	not predicted	extra breakpoints	distance
Viterbi	39	33	5	17(4..54)
max ball, r = 5	41	31	5	21(6..53)
DualBrothers	22	50	19	65(37..82)

For each algorithm, we report the number of published breakpoints that have been predicted by the algorithm and the number of predicted breakpoints that do not correspond to any of the published breakpoints, as well as the median distance between published and predicted breakpoints.
