Figure 4

GO consensus evaluation. PIPA's GO annotations with and without the consensus algorithm are compared for hierarchical precision (HP) and hierarchical recall (HR). For the consensus algorithm, each data point in the figure is computed by using different combinations of the three parameters, E₀, E₁, and SAT. When the consensus algorithm is not used, each data point is obtained by selecting a different cut-off E-value. The figure indicates that the consensus algorithm improves HP for each of the three GO categories. The highlighted points correspond to consensus algorithm results with parameters E₀ = 0.01, E₁ = 1e-200, and SAT = 0.99.
