NBC++ accuracy on all taxonomic levels is evaluated on simulated reads from different species. The accuracy of NBC (assigned on the species-level) on genomes known to-the-year are shown in solid lines and for the entire current set of testing reads is shown in dashed lines. As more genomes are added, there is ambiguity confusing the classifier (most notably on the species level), but this performance loss is small compared to the fact that as more data are known, the better the performance
