Table 2 Parameter optimization of the distance-profile method: performance indices based on the training set. The normalized performance indices are given in parentheses and expressed in percentages. For instance, the ROC1-S and TFF indices obtained under the Ppvalue representation with zscore threshold Ï„= 4 and L2 distance metric amount to 267 and 363, respectively. The PD measure was evaluated only for Ï„= 3 to 4.5.

From: The distance-profile representation and its application to detection of distantly related protein families
