Trainability of ESTseq parameters. The human and worm genes were each divided into two halves, one for training and one for testing. ESTseq parameters were estimated separately from half the human genes and half the worm genes. Each set of parameters was then tested separately on the other half of the human genes and the other half of the worm genes. The same models were used for both human and worm ESTseqs (5th-order Markov Models for the coding regions, UTRs, Introns and intergenic regions, 43-base-long 2nd-order WAM for splice acceptor sites and 9-base-long 2nd-order WAM for the splice donor sites).
