Pathogen detection performance: To assess the performance of ‘pathogen detection module’, sRNA datasets with defined viral or bacterial infections were analyzed and the F-score (a), recall (b), and precision (c) of the pathogen predictions were measured for the top 10 reported organisms. Overall, the prediction of bacterial (M. abscessus) and viral (HIV, HHV4, HHV5, Gallid_herpesvirus_2) infections resulted in high F-scores, recall, and precision, especially when the top 5 predicted pathogen species are reported. In consequence, Oasis 2 currently reports the top five predicted pathogen species based on their read counts
