Table 1 Disambiguation of gene vs. non-gene senses. Table entries show the number of abstracts in the test set with gene symbols that were correctly or incorrectly classified by the disambiguation algorithm as having a gene or non-gene sense. The percentages indicate the correctly and incorrectly classified symbols relative to the row totals. Reference fingerprints per gene symbol sense were derived from a combination of five Medline abstracts, not being part of the test set.
