Table 6.

Prediction accuracies for the three data sets shown in Table 1

Data set Prediction accuracy,* %
Prediction accuracy,* % assuming all hydrophobic residues are buried
≥95% burial ≥90% burial ≥80% burial ≥80%§ burial ≥95% burial ≥90% burial ≥80% burial
Original 80 80 84 78 52 62 75
Test1 100 60 75 89 46 54 69
Test2 None found 100 83 100 44 52 65

Buried residues in each data set are predicted using the criteria in Table 4 and the accuracies are calculated from the percentage of predicted residues that are actually buried in the protein crystal structure. 

*

Percent accuracy = 100% (number of predicted buried residues actually buried)/(total number of predicted buried residues). 

Using criteria from Table 4

Based solely on Hav criteria.
