Figure 4. Quantifying indel accuracy.

Figure 4

The correct alignment is shown at left and four possible predicted alignments are shown as A, B, C, and D. Nucleotides have been assigned a numerical identifier. The correct alignment has a single indel which partitions the alignment into three sections: the left aligned block, the indel, and the right aligned block. Predicted alignments must have one correctly aligned nucleotide pair in each of the three sections to count a true positive indel prediction.
