Figure 3

Definition of various clustering parameters. Figure 3 illustrates the mapping of three generated clusters denoted by oval outlines differentiated by different colors into a InterPro family denoted by a rectangle. The cluster can be mapped to an InterPro family only if more than 50% cluster members belong to that InterPro family; and is declared as a orphan cluster otherwise. Protein sequences outside the rectangle are false positives. Protein sequences within both the oval outline and the rectangle are true positives. Protein sequences wholly within the grey rectangle are false negatives.
