Distribution of maximal exon offsets \(\Omega\) in the test set of human-mouse orthologs. Exon offsets measure the cumulative effect that indels have on the relative positions of exons. For most genes, maximal exon offsets are in the range \([-10{,}000\,\hbox {bp},10{,}000\,\hbox {bp}]\) (blue). The offsets whose absolute value is beyond \(F=10{,}000\) are marked in orange. The distribution leans to the right, apparently because there are more transposable elements inserted in intronic regions in the human lineage. Outliers are not shown.
