ROC curves for Probalign mean posterior probability and SSEARCH normalized Z-score. To construct this curve we added to our dataset a set of false hits by replacing each genomic sequence in each dataset of the benchmark with a randomly selected one from a benchmark dataset of a different RNA family. The ROC analysis clearly demonstrates that the Probalign is better able to discriminate true from false alignments.
