Model Generating Procedure

Description

Arby default

Generates the default Arby models [23], exactly one for each target. Default parameters are: gap insertion 14.7, gap extension 0.37, substitution matrix Blosum62, Henikoff position-specific sequence weighting, relative weight of secondary structure is 0.24.

PVS

Generates models resulting from alignments with parameters multiplied by a factor varying from 0.5 to 1.5 with a step width of 0.25. This results in an ensemble of alternative models for each target.

PVH

Generates models resulting from alignments with parameters multiplied by a factor from 0.2 to 2.4 with a step width of 0.2. This results in an ensemble of alternative models for each target.
