Table 2 Performance of the Multivariate Bayesian annotation method. Re-annotation of the filtered ENZYME database with the multivariate Bayesian method. Since we systematically sample 10 enzymes to calculate the probabilities for a protein to belong to each functional class (See Different strategies of annotation), probabilities can only take one of the following eleven values: 0, 0.1, ..., 0.9, 1. We report for each assignment probability level and globally the number of correct annotations, the number of annotation errors and the corresponding error rate and coverage of the database.
