Figure 4. Overlap of FANTOM CRITICA Predictions with Genome-Based Gene Predictions Made by Six Methods.

Figure 4

Only the 16,900 maximal-length isoforms of the FANTOM CRITICA predictions were considered; these were compared to each genome-based method in turn as follows. Each CRITICA prediction was compared to the genome-based gene prediction that overlapped it by the greatest number of nucleotides, and the degree of overlap was quantified using the performance coefficient: the number of nucleotides in the intersection of the two predictions divided by the number of nucleotides in the union of the predictions [45]. These are box-and-whisker plots: the centre lines indicate the medians, the top and bottom of the boxes indicate the first and third quartiles, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points.
