Fig. 5From: Evaluation of shotgun metagenomics sequence classification methods using in silico and in vitro simulated communitiesPerformance of MetaSimHC compared to FW in silico. Sensitivity (a) and precision (b) of methods on the MetaSimHC dataset compared to the FW in silico of simulated 250Â bp reads. Values are averaged over all levels of clade exclusion from species to class. Although the microbes in the dataset changed, the relative performance of the methods remains very similar. Performance is calculated based on proportion of reads appropriately assigned and averaged per genome (see Methods)Back to article page
