Figure 3From: A comprehensive performance evaluation on the prediction results of existing cooperative transcription factors identification algorithmsRobustness against using mean or median of the scores in each performance index. We compared both final ranking lists that resulted from using mean and median, and obtained (a) correlation coefficient equal to 0.83 (P-value = 2.40e-4 for testing the hypothesis of no correlation) when the sum of the ranking scores is used to summarize the evaluation and (b) correlation coefficient equal to 0.74 (P-value = 2.40e-3) when the sum of normalized scores is used to summarize the evaluation. These results suggest that the comprehensive performance comparison results are robust against using mean or median in each performance index.Back to article page
