Figure 6

ROC curves for the 1st EC level (upper left chart); 1st and 2nd EC level (upper right chart); 1st, 2nd and 3rd EC level (lower left chart) and for all EC levels (lower right chart). Calculation was conducted for 3,135 sequentially non-redundant structures of known function. A random ROC curve (magenta colored) is not a diagonal line (usually presented in ROC plots) because assignment of enzyme function is more complicated than a problem of bimodal classification. Clearly, the probability of assignment of an incorrect EC number is bigger (for the 1st EC level) or much bigger (for all EC levels) than the correct one.
