  1. Comparison of the predictions made by our method and the GOM [8], for the 12 proteins previously uncharacterized (SGD, 2/02/2004) which have received an annotation in the meantime (SGD, 2/06/2004). The hybrid method uses YPD keywords, whereas the GOM uses MIPS keywords. The SGD annotations are Gene Ontology terms. The symbol = means that a prediction is equal or strongly similar to the actual annotation, whereas means that it is related to, and ≠ indicates that the prediction is different.
