From: CASPER: context-aware scheme for paired-end reads from high-throughput amplicon sequencing
Effects of making an integrative decision on the accuracy of merging. CASPER makes a call based on the ensemble of up to k individual decisions. For comparison, we additionally implement and measure the performance a version that makes a decision based on only one of the k contexts. For each dataset, the box plot in the figure shows the distribution of the accuracy values this modified version reports for different j values (1 ≤ j ≤ k).
