SuRankCo: supervised ranking of contigs in de novo assemblies

BMC Bioinformatics

Table 1 Comparative evaluation of SuRankCo and ALE

Score	Contig Length	Cor _Pearson	Cor _Spearman
SuRankCo	all	0.77	0.72
ALE	all	0.35	0.49
SuRankCo	≤Q _0.1	0.58	0.55
ALE	≤Q _0.1	0.16	0.37
SuRankCo	≥Q _0.9	0.75	0.68
ALE	≥Q _0.9	0.19	0.12

The table shows the Spearman and Pearson correlations of SuRankCo and ALE contig scores to the percentage identity of corresponding Blast hits. The correlations are calculated for all contigs as well as separately for short contigs (with lengths below the 10% quantile) and long contigs (with lengths above the 90% quantile)
