Distribution of recall (a) and information gain (b) metrics for curated and retrieved citations for miRNAs. Curated citations were collected from miRBase and Entrez Gene. The retrieved citations were obtained by querying PubMed using a compound search term, which included the miRNA symbol and its aliases. Recall for a miRNA was computed as the fraction of curated citations present amongst the retrieved citations for that miRNA. Information gain for a miRNA was calculated as the ratio between the number of additional citations retrieved, and the number of curated citations for that miRNA
