  1. Performance comparison done on an 'independent dataset' that contains 316 plastid and 316 non-plastid proteins. MCC = Matthews Correlation Coefficient, RFP = Rate of False Predictions, DIPEP = Dipeptide composition-based classifier, NCC = Nterminal-Center-Cterminal composition-based classifier.
