  1. Performance on the entire D. melanogaster test set of 7777 loci (see Table 1). Augustus, CONTRAST, Geneid, Genie and Genscan are ab initio predictors used as evidence sources for Evigan-5g. ReRanker-5g selects among K-best gene models produced by Evigan-5g with cross-species information. GeneWise, Augustus+ and Evigan-6g are other comparative gene predictors or approaches. Bold indicates where ReRanker-5g outperforms Evigan-5g; italics indicates where other comparative approaches outperform ReRanker-5g (see text).
