Specificity, sensitivity, and goodness on the benchmarking dataset. Sensitivity and specificity for CLUGEN and MCL at various specificities. At higher specificities, the sensitivity of both methods increases, whereas the goodness of both methods decreases. This is expected because higher specificities are achieved via stricter parameter thresholds that more clusters overall and fewer large clusters. Performance for both methods is comparable in this range with CLUGEN performing better at lower specificities and MCL performing better at higher specificities.
